Since its inception, the Earl Park Fall Festival has been synonymous with quality bluegrass music. Whether it's the main show on the stage behind the North Shelter area of the park or any number of private campsites, music can be heard throughout the entire day and evening.

Through the years, the stage at Earl Park has been graced by some of the finest bands in the Midwest as well as national acts including THE CHAPMANS, JOSH WILLIAMS, and MICHAEL CLEVELAND. However no matter what the musical line-up, you can expect a family-oriented show of the highest caliber in a welcoming environment, a formula that will keep you coming back year after year.

There is no admission fee to the shows or workshops although the “hat is passed” to help defray the expenses of paying the musicians and sound personnel.
