The fallout from this COVID-19 pandemic just won’t go away. Another setback for this year’s scheduled fun. The Watseka Family Festival is canceled !
That’s means no Neal McCoy Concert on a Saturday night. And the popular Nick Lynch Band was set to open for Neal McCoy at the entertainment stage. The August 27-30 event in Watseka was also supposed to include a carnival and other fun events.

Plans are underway for the 2021 Family Festival.

The Watseka Family Festival Committee made its decision this week. Committee President Jason Cahoe said “it’s most unfortunate, lot of people were looking forward to the fun – considering everything we’ve all been thru these last several months.” The pandemic situation also played a factor in the Festival unable to acquire insurance coverage.
