Fall on the Island Festival

Celebrate autumn at its most beautiful on Drummond Island during the annual Fall on the Island Festival — a weekend filled with vibrant color, fresh Great Lakes air, live entertainment, local flavors, and small-town charm.

Hosted by the Drummond Island Tourism Association, this beloved fall tradition invites visitors to experience the island at one of the most scenic times of year. As the forests transform into brilliant shades of red, orange, and gold, the community comes together for two days of friendly competition, handcrafted goods, outdoor adventure, and festive fun.

Live Music & Entertainment

Kick off your weekend under the main tent with live music and evening entertainment that keeps the energy high and the dance floor full. From classic hits to crowd favorites, it’s the perfect way to celebrate a crisp fall night on the island.

Signature Competitions & Crowd Favorites

Festival-goers can test their skills or cheer from the sidelines during fan-favorite events like the Stein Hoisting Contest, Cornhole Tournament, Chili Cook-Off, Eating Contest, Pie Baking Contest, and many more exciting competitions throughout the weekend. These lively competitions highlight local talent, island flavors, and plenty of good-natured fun.

Arts & Crafts Show

Browse unique, handcrafted goods from talented artisans at the Arts & Crafts Show. Whether you’re searching for a one-of-a-kind keepsake or early holiday gifts, you’ll find treasures that reflect the creativity of the island community.

Events & Island Adventure

Active visitors can participate in the 5K, a scenic run/walk that adds a playful twist to fall fitness. Golfers can enjoy a 9-hole scramble at the Drummond Island Township Golf Course, while others explore the island’s trails, shoreline views, and peaceful backroads bursting with fall color.

Make It a Fall Getaway

Fall on the Island Festival is more than an event — it’s a reason to plan your autumn escape. Stay for the weekend, explore local shops and dining, take in the breathtaking foliage, and experience the welcoming spirit that makes Drummond Island special year-round.
