Michigan Wizard of Oz Festival – Ionia
June 21, 2019 - June 22, 2019
Join us in Historic Downtown Ionia for Michigan’s only Wizard of Oz Festival, Friday and Saturday, June 21 and 22, 2019! Entrance is Free. In our 6th annual festival, we celebrate the 80th Anniversary of the release of the Wizard of Oz movie! We have planned two days of fun for every member of the family. Meet our Celebrity Guests and Official Characters, view world-famous displays and shop the specialty vendor area showcasing Oz memorabilia. Visit with one of several renowned Oz related authors who will provide books signings at their “meet and greet” sessions. Our fair city has mentions in several of their Oz editions. You won’t want to miss the special makeover of the King of the Forest – the Cowardly Lion. Join Glinda at her 2nd Annual Princess Tea Party. The movie that started it all will be shown at the iconic Ionia Theatre. Tickets are priced as it was 80 years ago – just 25 cents per person. Stop by the Corvette Car Show on Saturday afternoon. Chat with the owners of these breathtaking autos.
This year we are partnering with the “Grand River Arts and Craft Show” bringing vendors from afar with arts, crafts, antiques, repurposed/reclaimed furniture, and vintage treasures galore. Something for everyone.
