The 113th Roscoe Fall Festival runs September 8-10, 2023 at Leland Park. It is one of the longest running events of its kind in the Stateline area. In 1910, the Roscoe Improvement Association held the first Fall Festival in Roscoe. The Roscoe Lions Club has organized the annual event for the past 53 years. In 2020, it was canceled because of COVID-19, but returned for 2021.
