Strawberry Festival in downtown Kokomo!

 Friday, June 6, 2025 • 11 a.m. – 9 p.m.

Kick off summer at the 2025 Kokomo Strawberry Festival!

Celebrate the start of summer at one of Kokomo’s sweetest traditions! The 27th annual Strawberry Festival takes over downtown Kokomo on Friday, June 6, from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. and you’re invited. 

Savor the Sweetness

Nothing says summer like a heaping serving of strawberry shortcake. For just $8, enjoy the festival’s signature dessert layered with homemade shortcake, juicy strawberries, creamy ice cream, and a cloud of whipped cream. Tickets are now available for the event. 

Come early, shortcake is served until 7 p.m. or while supplies last! 

So Much More Than Shortcake

There’s something for everyone at the Strawberry Festival: 

  • 175+ booths featuring food, artisan goods, handmade gifts, and festival favorites 
  • Live music and entertainment filling the streets with energy and local talent 
  • Artsapalooza Art Market, a juried showcase of fine art and crafts by up to 80 talented artists 
  • Hands-on art activities and play zones perfect for kids and families, including the ABATE Tiny Tots Motorcyle Experience 
  • Craft beer and cocktails served throughout the walkable downtown festival area, thanks to DORA 

Admission is free and all ages are welcome. 

Come for the shortcake, stay for the atmosphere. Whether you’re shopping, snacking, sipping, or just soaking in the sunshine, the Kokomo Strawberry Festival is the place to be on June 6.
