STEWARTSVILLE FESTIVAL HISTORY:
"THE WORLD'S FAIR"
The first Stewartsville Festival was originally dubbed "The Southwest Dekalb and Northeast Clinton County Fall Festival" and was held Sep 30-Oct 2, 1954. The name was changed to "The Stewartsville Fall Festival" in 1976. Fast forward to 2017 and the name was changed to simply "The Stewartsville Festival" after moving the dates of the festival to the first weekend in August.
No matter the name, the Festival has been a long standing tradition for our small town and surrounding rural communities.
