Rock'n The Park - Medicine Park, Oklahoma

A few years ago, Medicine Park started the "float the park" idea during that year's Rock'n the Park weekend. Since then, they've decided to continue the tradition!

Terp Float Oklahoma - Tahlequah, Oklahoma

The Illinois River is one the most popular rivers to float in Oklahoma. This festival features two full days of live music with a swimming hole close to the beach stage, riverfront camping, a Sasquatch Bounty and is pet friendly! This festival is probably not the best to bring the kids along, but is the perfect excuse for a vacation getaway with plenty of fun in store. Terp Float Oklahoma is happening August 2nd & 3rd with an early-bird option available for August 1st.

Get the family (or friends) together and start planning your float festival trip now, but hold off on buying those tickets. According to ticketsmarter.com, tickets are cheaper the week of any festival. It still might be a good idea to plan your leave with work, find the right babysitter for the kiddos, or buy the boat before the show. Which festival are you most excited for?
