It’s that time again: the festivals and special events are starting to fill in northeast Ohio’s busy summer calendar.
It’s usually pretty complete by now, but this year it’s less so, with a couple of dozen outstanding dates. We’re hoping they didn’t go away like the Avon Duck Tape Festival, which announced recently the end of its run. But we’re happy to see the return of Veg Fest after a five-year pandemic break. The Ohio City Street Festival is coming back too in September, although we don’t have a date yet.
As usual, we remind you that this is just our first pass, so you can start planning your summer activities, but it’s not our last. If you know of any festivals we’ve miss, let us know. If you organize a festival, and have dates we haven’t included, let us know that too. We’ll be updating.
