Latest Festival News

We cannot say thanks enough for the tremendous sponsorship and support we have received over the years from The Bear Lot. Although they closed their doors at the end of March, they still want to continue to support us for years to come! The generosity of our community is what keeps us volunteers going and doing our best to make the Festival in the Park more than just a one time per year event. We can now plan more free events throughout the year thanks to fabulous sponsors such as the Bear Lot! And we plan to make our festival bigger and better every year!


Festival History

The first Mounds View Festival in the Park was held in 1975. The first few years the Festival was not held every year. As it gained in popularity, it transitioned to a yearly community event. Over the years the Festival has grown with the addition of a parade, more games and activities for kids, and recently the addition of the Friday night splash pad DJ party.

The Mounds View Festival in the Park is a registered 501(c)3 non-profit organization solely for the purpose of creating, running, and organizing the annual Festival held in the City of Mounds View, MN. If you would like to volunteer or donate, click HERE to contact our committee.
