The public is invited to attend the 74th annual Harlan Days Festival this summer in Harlan, Indiana on August 5, 6, and 7. We are planning for a full festival, but we will scale back if necessary. Entry and parking are free, all proceeds go to support the Harlan Community Park. Please mark your calendar and join us at Harlan Days!
Every night in the arena you can watch the action for just $5 starting at 7:30. Thursday night is Horse Racing, Friday night is Side-by-Side Drag Racing, and a Monster Truck Show on Saturday night for the main event! Also, on Saturday grab a seat to watch the Grand Parade stroll through town or take to the air for a helicopter ride starting at noon, flying all evening.
Harlan Park will be full of activities all festival long. Sit back, relax, and watch one of our sporting tourneys including softball, basketball, volleyball, kickball, and cornhole. Grab a bite to eat at the festival tent, Lion’s donuts and chicken, or from one of the 10+ food trucks. Visit the craft and merchant tent or enjoy the free live music every evening. And don’t forget the car show and carnival rides!
If you have never visited Harlan Days, this is your year! We promise you and your family will not regret the trip. We’ve been practicing this party for 74 years and have got rather good at it! We hope to see you in Harlan this summer, God willing and the creek don’t rise.
