Headline performers include headliner Colicchie (https://www.youtube.com/colicchie) who will appear at 8:45 following performances by Whirl\, Rock This Way\, Pilot to Pluto\, Mark Chatfield (formerly of Grand Funk Railroad and Michael Bolton) & Jon Oswald. \nAttendees will also hear from guest speaker Mark Lundholm (https://marklundholm.com/) who will be travelling in from San Jose\, CA. Mark is a recovery-themed comedian\, speaker\, author and hope dealer who will share a message of experience\, strength\, and hope. \nFun for the Whole Family Soberfest 2026 is designed for all ages\, featuring an expanded Kidszone. New for this year\, families can enjoy a two-hour petting zoo alongside returning favorites like magic shows (featuring Carroll Baker – https://www.carrollbaker.com/)\, face painting\, and balloon artistry. The Kidszone will run from 12:00 – 4:00. \n \n\nA variety of local food trucks will also be on-site all day. \nConnecting the Community to Resources Beyond the stage and games\, Soberfest serves as a critical link to community support. The Resource Fair will host over 70 partners\, including treatment centers\, wellness organizations\, and medical professionals\, to provide valuable information and direct services. In previous years\, these partnerships have resulted in hundreds of on-site health tests and direct connections to life-saving treatment. \n“Every year at Soberfest\, my heart is filled with gratitude. I love seeing our community come together… witnessing the growth in the people we serve\, our colleagues\, peers\, and even taking a moment to reflect on our own journeys\,” says the event leadership. \nFor more information\, volunteer opportunities\, or to register as a partner\, visit SoberfestOhio.com or SerenityStreet.org. \nFor up to date information please follow our Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/SoberfestOH \n \n\nShare this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Threads (Opens in new window)\n Threads\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n Like this:Like Loading… URL:https://pickeringtononline.com/event/2026-soberfest/ LOCATION:Franklin County Fairgrounds\, 4100 Columbia St\, Hilliard\, OH\, 43026\, United States CATEGORIES:All Ages,Community Event,Crafts,Fair/Festival,Family Event,Games,Music,Outdoor Activity ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://pickeringtononline.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/Soberfest.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260918T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260920T170000 DTSTAMP:20260830T001617Z CREATED:20260830T001617Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260830T001617Z UID:48326-1789747200-1789923600@pickeringtononline.com SUMMARY:28th Annual Ohio Pawpaw Festival DESCRIPTION:The Annual Ohio Pawpaw Festival is a fun-filled\, educational community event celebrating one of America’s largest native tree fruits\, the pawpaw (Asimina triloba).
