For over 40 years, Carlisle Summerfair has provided a community-wide celebration featuring a variety of free, family-friendly events. Taking place at the end of June and beginning of July, this annual event features activities such as open pool nights, concerts, a craft show, a fishing derby, sporting events, and more.
Kick off the event with a free ice cream social, Kids' Carnival, and a free concert by local band Cheap Sneakers starting at 6 pm on Friday, June 27. Summerfair then continues with fun for everyone over the course of 10 days.

NOTE: Due to the damage from the storm, the concert scheduled for Sunday, July 6, cannot be held outdoors on the lawn and will be relocated to an indoor venue: ATS Auditorium, 360 W. Louther St. The first 750 spectators will be permitted, as seating is limited. Doors open at 6 pm.
