Notes from the last check
The official Pella Historical Museums pages state the 2027 festival runs May 6 to 8 and that it always falls on the first Thursday to Saturday in May, with parades at about 2:45pm and a lighted evening parade at about 8:30pm; the 2026 dates, opening hours and prices with dates could not be verified in this run.
