Summer festival celebrates 41 years of fun in Westland, MI -- June 30 - July 4, 2011

While budget cuts in other cities continue to cancel extra curricular activities, Westland, MI has been able to maintain costs that will allow the summer festival to continue. The summer festival has been a mainstay in the city for the last forty years. Due to the longevity of this event, you will find families that were raised in Westland and went to the festival as a child now bringing their kids to the festival and reminiscing about their childhood experiences at the fair.

This festival has something for everyone.

Carnival rides.
Live bands.
A horseshoe contest.
A muscle car show.
A beauty pageant.
Free parking and shuttle service.
Carnival rides.
A fun and educational science show.
A fundraiser walk for the Alzheimer's Association.
A child ID program.
A petting farm.
A fireworks display on the last night.
Did I mention the carnival rides?
Bring the whole family out for one day or all five. Grab an elephant ear, a hot dog or some cotton candy. You won't be bored. DON'T FORGET THE FIREWORKS DISPLAY......

All carnival rides provided by Wade Shows.

Brian, this is one area city that sees the positive, community benefit of keeping recreational activities alive.

Kristine, I took my kids there and now they are taking their kids, with Grandpa in tow. Yes, I still like to ride the rides too. I see the wheels spinning for your 31 day challenge final post. See you at the end.

Hi Craig, This one has to stay. I had been to it several times over the last 20 years.

The good thing is only advertising dollars invested and a very good return on the investment. A very good revenue generating cash cow for the area.

Nice of you to give notice to such a good event.
