Gahanna’s Creekside Blues and Jazz Festival is one of the nicest community festivals of the summer. It is a very manageable size (especially if you are toting the little ones), and the weather usually ends up cooperating (most years). With the recent Creekside development, parking has become much less of an issue (wear comfortable shoes, just in case the garage is full, which it very well may be…). It also has much more of a “family” feel, with the crazy “carny” action of some of the other outlying community festivals kept to a minimum.
NOTE: They are charging $2 a head this year, but kids and military are free.
