The International Carillon Festival, first held in 1962, is lauded as one of the world’s most important and prestigious carillon events. Join family and friends at Washington Park and enjoy an outdoor celebration with this gigantic instrument!
The International Carillon Festival has earned an unsurpassed tradition of presenting the world’s finest carillonists/carillonneurs. During the past five decades, the Festival has featured carillonists from: Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Denmark, England, France, Germany, Ireland, the Netherlands, Portugal, New Zealand, Norway, Switzerland, and the United States.
The Festival is presented by the Springfield Park District with the support of The Rees Carillon Society and The Carillon Belles.
