The Carousel Festival features live music & performances, an artisan alley*, food trucks & food vendors, an action-packed Kids Zone** in addition to the newly restored Historic Dentzel Carousel and other amusement rides that call City Park home...
Amusement Park Rides & fun for the whole family will fill Burlington’s City Park throughout the weekend. Event entry & the amusement park rides (carousel, train, planes, cars & boats) are FREE but don’t forget to bring spending money for shopping, kids activities, inflatables, food and other fun features. We hope to see you at the largest event hosted in the City of Burlington!
