Workers set up the ShrinersFest stage on Riverside Drive at Main St.

The event runs Friday night through Saturday night along Riverside drive

ShrinersFest 2025 is underway on Evansville’s riverfront. WNIN’s John Gibson has more:

The Hadi Shrine’s annual festival kicks off Friday evening with food trucks, vendors, live music, a car show, and a bierstube.

The event also features a half-pot drawing and a parade.

An unusual attraction at this year’s fest may be a sinkhole at Riverside and Chestnut St.

Much of Riverside Drive is already closed due to the hole and the effort to fix it.

But all intersecting streets, including Main and Walnut, will be closed at Riverside for ShrinersFest.

The festival is from 4 to 11 p.m. Friday and all-day Saturday from 8 a.m. to midnight.
