Event Description
Ed Fest Arts & Music Festival is a two-day free to attend celebration of creativity and expression held at Rotary Park on September 5th and 6th, offering an unforgettable experience for attendees of all ages.
The festival boasts a dynamic lineup, including musical performances. In addition to musical acts, there will be interactive art installations, and a mesmerizing lantern parade. Did we mention food trucks and beer?
The festival features workshops and an art competition organized by Cranbrook Arts. An artisan market, in collaboration with the Cranbrook Farmer’s Market, will offer local crafts and goods, providing a perfect spot to discover unique items and support local artisans.
This year’s festival embraces the whimsical history of Ed the elephant, who famously escaped from a traveling circus in Cranbrook nearly a century ago. Festivities will include a downtown “stampede” with a large puppet of Ed, and attendees are encouraged to wear carnival-themed costumes to join in the fun.
Whether you are an art enthusiast, a music lover, or simply looking for a family-friendly event, Ed Fest 2025 promises something for everyone.
Mark your calendars for September 5th and 6th at Rotary Park, Cranbrook, and join the celebration of community and creativity.
