Congratulations to Cheyenne Wilcox, winner of our 2023 National Trout Festival® logo design contest!

Welcome to the 2023 National Trout Festival®!

April 26th to 30th, Kalkaska, MI

The National Trout Festival consists of events, activities, and parades that take place mainly at the Kalkaska County Fairgrounds and downtown at Railroad Square in the 300 block of Cedar St. We welcome several community groups as partners that offer a variety of events during the five-day festival. You will find info in our schedule and more details on this website. Rise & Shine; It's Fishing Time!

Congratulations and thank you to Cheyenne Wilcox for the winning logo design for the 86th National Trout Festival.
