About Spring Fest
Established in 2019
In 2018, it was announced a longstanding Miamisburg tradition, the Spring Fling, would end. A group of citizens volunteered to continue planning a free spring event for our community. Each of us volunteers because we love our town and we loved Spring Fling. Our committee had a variety of experiences- but it was safe to say this was the biggest project any of us had taken on.
With the help of the Miamisburg Parks Department, the previous planning committee, and our neighbors, we pulled off our first event in 2019! While this came with some changes and challenges, we were extremely proud. Along with the rest of the world, our plans for an event in 2020 were crushed. We were not able to return until 2022, but each year we have grown and been able to donate more and more back to Miamisburg. We are especially proud of our scholarship for graduating seniors from MHS and our efforts to support local projects.
We make efforts to support local artists, musicians, and vendors from our neighborhood and from around Ohio. Our Maker's Mart includes all small businesses with handmade merchandise. We strive to book local musicians and to draw in new visitors with amazing acts. If you are interested in volunteering please email burgspringfest@gmail.com We are always looking for new ideas or ways to improve our event. Please click here to share your ideas!
