 Howell Melon Festival returns for 62nd year on August 10-14

The Howell Melon Festival is back, celebrating 62 years running this Summer! We're kicking off the festival activities early this year, starting in July with our first ever Melon Classic Golf Scramble on Friday, July 22nd and the return of the fan-favorite Melon Ball on Saturday, July 23rd. Both hosted at the lovely Chemung Hills Golf Club & Banquet Center!

The festival fun in Downtown Howell begins Wednesday, August 10th with pre-ticketed event night of Trivia at the Festival Tent!

Thursday evening, August 11th brings a pre-ticketed event of Dueling Pianos to the Festival Tent.

The festival weekend then kicks off with the 45th Annual Howell Melon Run on Friday, August 12th. Festivities continue that night with a concert from Great Scott along with delicious beer and wine at the Festival Tent on S. Center Street.

The City of Howell is starting off the Saturday morning activities with the return of the Melon Festival parade. Don't forget to check out the 2nd Annual CornHowell (cornhole) Tournament on State Street where participants can win cash prizes. Afterward be sure to stick around for kids' activities, a classic car show, concerts from Fast Eddie and Empty Canvas, and much more.

Sunday, August 14th, morning mimosas will be available in the festival tent.
