The Dayton Celtic Festival is by far the best —awesome music and entertainment, great activities and great urban setting down on Riverscape. It’s a “must do” and it’s next weekend —the last weekend in July —I can’t wait!!!!

The Dayton Celtic Festival is the best festival in Dayton. I love the City Folk Festival too; I wish they would bring back the vendors I really miss them! Let’s see the Italian and the Greek Festivals are also great, good food and good people. Thanks Dayton!

So many great events in Dayton but “A World A’Fair” combines all ethnicities into the best event featuring music, dance, arts, food and drink from over 30 ethnic groups. Best of all are continuous performances on two big stages and the culture booths.

The Fair at New Boston is so unique. It really does seem like time travel back 200 years. What a wonderful way to spend Saturday and Sunday of Labor Day weekend.

Dayton Celtic Festival is by far the best in the area! The music is incredible, the food is great, the vendors are plentiful, lots to do for all ages, regardless if you are Celtic or not. Being at Riverscape is awesome and the new pavillion is going to rock! I look forward to it every year!

I have to go with the Dayton Celtic Festival. They have a great rotation of music every year. (My favorite bands are Gaelic Storm, Scythian, and Homeland). Also, the Celtic Fest seems to have a wider range of food vendors than most other festivals, stuff to keep kids interested….and its FREE!!! I look forward to it every year!

My vote is for the Cityfolk Festival! Cityfolk has been hosting the Festival with an eclectic mix of traditional music since 1996. Their Material Culture area invloves the Festival goers in a diferent culture area each year. Plus lots of intersting food vendors.
