Stark County Italian American Festival!

WEIS PARK….HERE WE COME….
Weis Park – 2600 Harvard & 26th St. NW (Near Malone University)
As many of you are aware, for the past two years, our Annual Italian Festival has been suspended because of
Covid, but we are back in full effect. After careful deliberation and the safety of our patrons we decided to postpone the past two year. We also have decided to move the dates from June to July this year and for the future. WE
also decided to keep Weis Park as our Venue. The WEIS PARK location offers several opportunities for festivalgoers; large open spaces, four professionally manicured bocce courts, area for a Kids Zone, ample space for food
vendors, spacing for our popular “Wine-Pairing Event” as well as a huge eating tent and entertainment staging area.
Parking will be available near the Festival site.
We are excited with our location and hope that our Festival-goers will join us in a loud supportive…. BRAVO!
