Fond du Lac Festivals, Inc. (FFI) is excited for another year of the 44th year of this long-running festival in Fond du Lac.  Walleye Weekend will return to Lakeside Park on June 10th – 12th

Walleye Weekend hosts many returning crowd-favorite events including the Walleye Run/Walk, Mercury National Walleye Tournament, Wild World of Animals show, Pier Pups jumping canines, and so much more.  Other highlights include multiple stages with the best musical acts in the region, FamilyLand – a family-friendly area full of children’s activities, tournaments for all kinds of sports, your favorite “festival style” foods, a Build & Block Zone, Imagination Island, and Sports Corner challenges.  100% of money raised over the weekend goes toward area non-profits.

This year, Sunday is highlighted as Mercury Marine Family Day which will host several promotions and giveaways for kids throughout the park.  The YMCA and youth football organizations host a new Fondy Football Challenge that will take place on Sunday with a series of football competitions for kids first grade through eighth.

“We’re excited for you to come see what’s new at this year’s Walleye Weekend Festival with interactive and inclusive events all weekend long.  Once again, we have something for everyone.  Come see top bands across three stages, including Eve6 and Blessid Union of Souls on Saturday night,” says FFI Executive Director, Peter Wilke.
