Beth's Favorite Festivals & Events in the Willmar Lakes Area

Year-round there are a variety of festivals and events for the entire family to enjoy in the Willmar Lakes Area. I have included some of my favorites in my list.

Sonshine Festival

Willmar
Sonshine Festival is a Christian Music Festival that is held over four days each July. Over 20, 000 people attend the music festival each year. For those four days, the town of Willmar doubles in size. Band stages are set up both inside at outside at the Willmar Civic Center. Free camping is available at Tent City on the Civic Center grounds.
