Our Logging Festival is open for exhibitors! We'd love for you to help us celebrate. Our visitors are seeking handmade crafts, one of a kind resale items and local foods. I bet you have something to offer them! Additional events that will entice buyers include our annual Professional & Amateur Lumberjack Competition, live wood carving, a Sunday Parade and local businesses will have sidewalk sales and specials! This show has continuously brought in approximately 4,500 guests. We average about 90 vendors with a mix of handmade, resale and our member businesses.
Newaygo is a small community that thrives with tourism thanks to our natural resources like the Muskegon River running right through the downtown district as well as numerous trails.
