The first Bluegill Festival in St. Helen took place in 1949. Our Festival currently consists of carnival rides, car show, motorcycle show, medallion hunt, fishing contest, vendors, grand parade, baseball games, adult beverage pavilion, live bands and much more.
The festival takes place each year in June. It begins with an opening ceremony on Thursday as vendors open for the action packed weekend. The beverage pavilion also opens up for business and the carnival rides are up and running.
Friday and Saturday is full of excitement. The St. Helen Bluegill Festival has been a family tradition for over 70 years.
St. Helen is the place to be in June. There is something for everyone and tons of fun for you at Exit 222.
