Can't miss events this summer? (lemmy.fmhy.ml)

I see a ton of upcoming festivals and events, and I've only attended a few. Which ones are really worth checking out? Any that aren't on the list?

What about the reverse? Any that are not worth the time and should be avoided?

Maybe a hot take around here, but circleville pumpkin show is too much these days. It's insanely crowded, traffic gets ridiculous, and maybe this is my early old man signs, but the vendors (food/drink) aren't what they used to be.

Thank you, that was actually on my "Maybe" pile

I pretty much agree. I have been going Friday morning right when they open and it’s not bad. We leave around lunchtime when it’s starting to get crowded. My kids have had the day off the past couple of years so it’s worked out but I’m not sure about this year. I wouldn’t go otherwise though, it starts to feel so crowded by the time we leave and I know it only gets worse.
