The 2026 EasterFest will be held in the NOTO Arts District on N. Kansas Avenue on March 28, 2026, the week before Easter (instead of the day before Easter as in the past). There will be no parade this year due to traffic restrictions, but all the other usual activities will be there, plus a few new options!
We will have the Big Egg Hunt in Veterans Park (at the north end of the Kansas Ave. Bridge. Also in that area will be a Petting Zoo, Inflatables, Vendors and Food Trucks!
In Redbud Park we will have Live Music, Vendors both inside and outside, and Food Trucks across the street next to NOTO Arts Center.
There will also be vendors inside and outside of the Arts Center.
On the sidewalks on Kansas Avenue (as well as in the breezeway connecting Veterans Park) there will also be vendors, some of them from local NOTO businesses and others brought in from across Topeka and Kansas!
In total we will have over 100 vendors taking part!
This will be a celebration like we've never had before!
Application forms for new vendors, entertainment and volunteers will be available soon!
Mark your calendars and make plans now!
This event is coordinated by C5Alive and other non-profit organizations.
