Edwardsville's annual Route 66 Festival has been taking place for more than a quarter of a century to celebrate the City's many decades of Route 66 history and tradition! From morning to night, the festival is a rollicking fun time for all ages and interests in City Park in beautiful downtown Edwardsville! CENTENNIAL CELEBRATION: 2026 marks the 100th birthday of Route 66! We're going the extra mile to plan an extra special festival in 2026.
