The Harvest Festival began in 2021, organized by the Rosthern Agricultural Society.  
In 2024, with Town Council approval, leadership of this community event was passed over to the Town of Rosthern Recreation Department and is hosted in partnership with our local Sport, Culture and Recreation Organizations, Service Agencies and Business Community. It is slated to take place annually, on the third weekend of September.  Traditionally the festival includes a parade, market, car show, Slo Pitch Tournament, family friendly games & activities, a variety of food options and beer gardens, and fireworks display.    

We are always looking for new ideas and volunteers!  If you want get involved, please contact recreation@rosthern.com!
