Welcome!

It's time for the 84th National Trout Festival in beautiful Kalkaska, Michigan!

Our 2021 dates are April 21st through 25th and we've pack the days with fun and exciting activities for everyone! Unfortunately, you will notice some events are missing from this year's schedule. We hope to be able to welcome them back next year. In the meantime, let's celebrate the opening of Trout Season and enjoy our community's premier event safely!  Let's get "HOOKED ON FISHING"!

Kalkaska! You rocked the Trout Fest! We thank each and every person who had a part in the success of the 2021 National Trout Festival! On to 2022!
