Ginkgo Galore Festival
GINKGO GALORE™ is a daylong arts and music festival celebrating creativity and community in Wilmore, Kentucky — The Ginkgo Capital of America. Launched as part of Wilmore's 150th city-wide celebration, it is the first and only ginkgo-themed festival in the United States. GINKGO GALORE™ isn't simply an arts festival or a music festival. Those are categories. Here, discovery leads. Art, music, and learning amplify.
People come to explore. That creates a very different identity than "Come hear bands" or "Come buy crafts." Those are commodity festivals. This is a celebration of community, fellowship, fun, legacy, and discovery — with the ginkgo tree as its symbol for all of those things.
Each year's programming is dynamic, reflecting a varying array of Dovetail Event Partners. Discovery is the leading sentiment. Music alone creates spectators. Art alone creates browsers. Discovery offers ownership.
