Old Fashioned Tokeland 4th of July Parade & Picnic - July 6th, 2024
The first Tokeland parade was in 1976 when neighbors came together to celebrate our country's independence. The family picnic and field games, like the famous sack race and water balloon toss, were added a few years later making the Saturday closest to the 4th of July holiday a date to remember.

Tokeland Woodfest - August 10th & 11th, 2024
Chainsaws, beer garden and live music – sounds like a perfect summer day, what could be better? How about adding a handmade art festival? Yes! Even better. What started over 15 years ago as an annual carver party, Jeffro Uitto, a popular local wood artist & carver, now hosts a giant party that everyone is invited to. Woodfest has a local friendly vibe that extends to two days of live music, food, local and visiting arts and yes, live chainsaw carving by some of the most talented carvers in the region.
This event has grown in popularity and traffic congestion can be an issue, therefore parking at the Tokeland Hotel is reserved for guests and handicap visitors only. Please use the Shoalwater Bay Casino shuttle to/from the event as regular parking is limited.
