Nothing says summer like homemade shortcake, ice cream, strawberries, and whipped cream piled high in a bowl. And enjoying that strawberry shortcake out in the sun while listening to live music is even better, and that’s what you’ll find at the annual Strawberry Festival in Kokomo, Indiana. The event will be held from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. tomorrow (June 2, 2023) on the Courthouse Square downtown.
(The Downtown District map guides festival-goers to public parking lots.)
Tickets for strawberry shortcakes are $6. Tickets are available at the event. Shortcakes will be served until 7 p.m. or while supplies last.
The festival’s free activities will fill the Courthouse Square. Farmers’ market vendors will sell local produce and homemade items. And enjoy live music throughout the day on the Rhum Academy of Music Stage and the Artsapalooza Art Market, including an array of art from local and regional creators.
