Tipp City Mum Festival’s theme for 2025 will be “Mums are in the Air”.
All the Fun Things to do!
The Tipp City Mum Festival has plenty to offer. Can’t wait for the festival to get started? We’ve got some activities that start before the Festival weekend. You can show your support by adopting a mum, coming along with us for our motorcycle ride, watching the Mum Queen’s pageant, or by also joining us Friday night before the festival for the car show.
Saturday morning all the fun begins with the Run for the Mums 5K, followed by our Mum Parade. You can find your next treasure with one of our many vendors, or fill your tummy with delicious food from one of our many concessionaires. We’ve also got all types of entertaining acts on our stage, from live bands to gymnastics. Want the kids to wear themselves out? Stop by MumKids Land to bounce off some of that energy. We strive to make our festival a place where you can find something that will entertain everyone in the family.
Activities:
Adopt-A-Mum (Boy Scout Troop 586)
========================
The Tipp City Mum Festival Committee and the Boy Scouts of America Troop 586 would like to offer you the opportunity to join in the celebration of the festival by adopting a mum. The Boy Scouts will be painting mums on the sidewalks and driveways of those wishing to adopt a mum.
Cost of a mum is $15*. The mums are approximately 3’x3′ and can be painted in your choice of red, white, yellow or a combination, with or without a stem.
*Note: Online orders require a $1 fee per mum for processing.
