The Waukee Area Arts Council is pleased to present the 10th Annual Waukee Arts Festival on July 18-19, 2025 in Centennial Park. The festival will open Friday, July 18 from 5pm-8pm, followed by a concert with The Nadas. The festival reopens Saturday at 10am with artist vendors, day time music, food and beer trucks, and will conclude with our feature concert Rock a La Carte Queen Tribute. Artist vendors will be open from 10am to 8pm. The Waukee Arts Festival has quickly become Waukee's largest and best-attended city event and draws more than 10,000 people from across the Midwest. The Waukee Arts Council is a non-profit organization. All proceeds go back to the community through additional artistic engagements, future arts festivals, DEI initiatives, and financial scholarships for local high school students wishing to pursue continued education in the arts.
In addition to the 100+ artist exhibits and headlining concerts, our festival also features acoustic music acts throughout the day, food vendors offering varied fare, unique beer garden, kids activities and entertainment for the whole family.
The 2nd Annual Waukee Fine Arts Footrace will be held Saturday July 19th at 7:30am. Take part in a new summer tradition as the Waukee Arts Festival hosts a scenic race through Centennial Park and Sugar Creek Trail finishing in Waukee's best annual event. Enjoy a timed run and stick around to listen to live music, eat at a food truck, and, of course, peruse the wonderful local artists for something that speaks to you.
