The Marshall County Blueberry Festival Guide is out and ready for next weekend's event, offering attendees a comprehensive look at the largest four-day festival in the State of Indiana.

This year's festival marks a special milestone — the 60th anniversary — celebrated under the theme "Memories of the Past." The 34-page guide provides a daily rundown of events beginning Thursday evening, September 3, and running through Monday, September 7.

The guide introduces the festival board members and offers a closer look at the 2026 Blueberry Festival Queen, Brooks Kitch, and her court, along with the 2026 Teen Miss Blueberry, Ruby Meister, and her court. Festivalgoers can find locations throughout the park where the queen and teen will appear during the weekend.

The guide also highlights the scholarship winners and features many photos from the festival's 59-year history.

Attendees will find a complete listing of the free entertainment scheduled over the Labor Day weekend, along with a list of events especially for kids. The guide also includes dates, times, activities, and a full list of beers available in the Blueberry Beer Garden.

Information on new events and returning favorites is also included, ensuring visitors don't miss any of the action.

At the back of the guide, a fold-out map and key show visitors where to find food booths, commercial booths, the three stages, the garden tractor pull, car show, pickleball tournament, tethered balloon ride, and much more — making it easy to navigate the festival grounds in Centennial Park and the other locations throughout the City of Plymouth.

A limited number of festival guides are available in the GIANT fm WTCA Studios at 112 West Washington Street in downtown Plymouth.
