THIS WEEK IN MILAN!
It's Fair week! The 77th Milan Community Fair takes over Wilson Park Thursday through Saturday with the midway, a parade, fireworks Friday night, and Stealin' Copper closing out the weekend on the stage. One of the biggest weeks of the year in Milan.
A FEW HIGHLIGHTS:
Milan Community Fair Parade -- Thursday, May 28 at 6:00 PM, Downtown Milan
The parade kicks off Fair week at 6 PM. Lineup is at 5 PM at Paddock Elementary. Floats, horses, trucks, buses, and walking organizations all welcome. Everyone is invited to participate.
Milan Community Fair Fireworks Show -- Friday, May 29 at 10:05 PM, Wilson Park
One of the best fireworks shows in Michigan. Note: Wabash Street will be closed between Neckel Court and Main Street from 8 PM to midnight. If you park in the Wilson Park, American Legion, or Wabash Street lots before 8 PM, you will not be able to leave until the road reopens. Plan accordingly.

Rides and games all weekend long at Wilson Park.
