Come join us our 59th annual festival! We have fun, festivities, and food for everyone.

The Botkins Carousel is the annual community festival of Botkins, Ohio as it has been since 1965. This three-day event is filled with fun for all ages. From kid's rides and activities throughout the weekend to awesome nightlife once the sun goes down. We cap off the weekend with the festival parade on Sunday and finally, the Community Club grand raffle.
