Belwin Bison Festival

Welcome a herd of juvenile male bison from NorthStar Bison to Belwin. This free community festival celebrates bison’s critical role in helping Belwin maintain and improve our restored prairie.

The festival will be held rain (or snow!) or shine, so plan accordingly. Bring a chair or picnic blanket. Please consider carpooling!

Parking
Free parking for event at Belwin’s Lucy Winton Bell Athletic Fields.

Accessibility
Handicap parking will be set aside near the festival tent. Please tell the parking attendants of your need when you enter. From the festival tent, vehicles will transport those in need of assistance to the bison viewing area for the actual bison release (estimated to be around 12:30 p.m.). Please allow time to enjoy the festival and get to the release, a 3-minute ride or 10-minute walk with a stroller through the prairie.
