Welcome to Summerfest 2025… Our 31st Annual!
“Route 66” Summerfest will be held June 6th & June 7th in Rolla, Missouri. This is the 31st year for this event. It was originally started to promote Downtown Rolla but has evolved into an area wide celebration for all ages to promote Old Route 66 and the beginning of summer.
Friday night we kick off Summerfest with a cruise down Route 66 from St. James to Rolla. The activities begin in the festival lot in Downtown Rolla with the Crazy Funny Dog Show, Drummers Competition and Movie Under the Stars. There will be music in the food court from 4:30 pm until 8 pm, food and craft vendors will be open most of the evening. We’ll have lots of children’s games and activities all evening as well.
Saturday starts bright and early at 8 am with the Car Show lining up on Pine Street in Downtown Rolla. Hosting over 150 cars, spanning from Louisiana, Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and more, this is a great show that is growing each year. The Arts & Crafts booths open at 9am along with the food vendors, kids activities, the famous “burnout contest” at 6pm and the street dance at 7:30pm. There are many other events all throughout the day.
This is just a preview of some of the events. Check out the schedule of events for a full listing.
