East Jordan Freedom Festival

Join us June 21 – June 25, 2023 East Jordan Freedom Festival!

Often referred to as the pride and joy of the East Jordan Community, the Freedom Festival truly is one of the area’s favorite summer events. Freedom, family and friendship are celebrated during the five day event. The festival features a “home-town” old-fashioned Friday Night Block Party with food, music and games for all ages, a Youth Parade, Grand Parade, Kids Activities, Carnival, a multitude of entertainers and musicians, food booths and a spectacular fireworks display shot from a barge on the beautiful South Arm of Lake Charlevoix on Saturday evening at dusk. 

The festival is organized by an all volunteer board of directors who meet monthly to plan and organize this renowned event for 10,000 plus people to enjoy over the 5-day June celebration. This year’s dates are Wednesday, June 21 through Sunday, June 25.
