This moment means more to us than we can put into words.

After four years of passion, growth, hard work, and heart, Alderfest is on the verge of something truly monumental: Saturday tickets are nearly sold out. Only 200 remain — and for our little lakeside festival, that’s a milestone worth celebrating.

What began as a small dream — bringing people together by the water for a weekend of music, joy, and community — has grown into something far bigger than we ever imagined. Each year, we’ve watched Alderfest evolve: more laughter, more dancing, more shared moments under the summer sky. And now, in 2025, we’re standing at the edge of our biggest festival yet.

To say we’re proud doesn’t quite cover it. We’re proud of the team who make it happen, the artists who bring the energy, and the thousands of people who choose to spend their summer with us. We’re proud of how far we’ve come — from a field and a dream, to a nearly sold-out celebration.

This isn’t just about ticket numbers — it’s about a community that has grown around something we all believe in. A place where memories are made, year after year.

So, to everyone who’s been part of this journey — whether you’ve attended, performed, worked behind the scenes, or simply cheered us on — thank you. You’ve helped build something really special.

Here’s to Alderfest 2025 — our biggest celebration yet. We can’t wait to share it with you.
