Since 1988, the St. Gabriel Summer Festival has become a herald of the summer season.  When temperatures warm, tents go up, rides roll in, smells from delicious food waft from the grills and ovens, school comes to a close, kids smile with excitement and you know it’s unmistakably festival time!  The Catholic community of St. Gabriel invites their friends and neighbors in the tri-county area to be a part of their 36th annual summer festival, an amazing four-day event June 6–9.

The grand prize raffle winner can win over $20,000 plus nightly drawings to celebrate summer: $500 drawing Thursday 10 pm, $500 drawing Friday 10 pm, $1,000 drawing Saturday 10 pm.  Grand prize drawing will be held on Sunday, June 11 at 9:30 pm.  Winner need not be present to win.  Tickets are available for sale at the parish office, online at St-Gabriel.org, or at the festival.

Try your luck at the Monte Carlo held each night of the festival. Delectable food such as homemade pierogis, cabbage rolls and noodles, bakery items, their famous fresh-cut French fries, roasted corn and festival favorites like hamburgers, ice cream, pizza and slushies beckon guests back year after year.  Enjoy live entertainment each festival evening with northeast Ohio’s favorite bands.  Families will enjoy face painting, games, and rides for all ages with all-day ride passes or individual ticket options available.  There’s something for everyone at the St. Gabriel Summer Festival!
