The only 10-day free festival of its kind in North America it is inspired by a magnificent lilac collection at Highland Park that plays host to over 500 varieties of lilacs on more than 1,200 bushes. What was first planted in 1892 by horticulturist John Dunbar has turned into the world’s largest lilac collection that even Martha Stewart has enjoyed when she visited the festival in 2007. This event is perfect for all ages and was even voted as a top 100 event by the American Bus Association for 2010.
Ten days of free entertainment on our main stage including performances by national recording artists. Free children’s entertainment during the week and on the weekends! Special events such as our Business ROCs Lilacs on Tuesday, "As Seen On TV" on Wednesday, Wine & Farmer's Market on Thursday and Medved Lilac 10K & 5K Family Fun Run on Sunday, plus much more! The 2012 Lilac Parade will bring dozens of marching bands, decorated floats, clowns, dancers and costumed characters.
Visitors will see not only nature's bounty in abundance, but exhibitors, food vendors, entertainment, children's activities and so much more. We encourage you to travel to the Lilac Festival, there is something for everyone!
