-Downtown Miamisburg’s RiverFront Park-

What is the Rock ‘N’ Green Tomato Festival?

It’s the time for YOU to see what Miamisburg, Ohio is all about. What once started as a small town, is now a thriving hub for small businesses, community, and celebration.

Ron Holp (original owner of Ron’s Pizza and the GodFather of Miamisburg) and Jack Sperry (owner of the Hamburger Wagon) wanted our city to have a festival that showcases these great qualities and provide a family fun event for all to enjoy. Made possible by the MANY Miamisburg businesses who sponsored the event, we are excited to have this festival back for our second consecutive year at Riverfront Park!

With Farmers & Merchants Bank as our gracious title sponsor, we are excited to also announce we are merging together with “RIVERBLAST” that usually takes place on Labor Day.. What does this mean? All the fun of Rock N Green Tomato Fest and RiverBlast will be featured in this August event : Fireworks, FREE kids zone, and you can’t miss the ROCK in the Rock ‘N’ Green Fest.

We are keeping live music, drinks, and fried green tomatoes and fried green tomato sliders rolling the whole time for a rock ‘N’ good time!

GIVING BACK TO OUR COMMUNITY

GIVING BACK TO OUR COMMUNITY

The Festival is part of a 501C3 organization, the Miamisburg Community Foundation which focuses on charitable, cultural, environmental, and recreational opportunities for the Miamisburg community. 10% of the profits from the festival go to the foundation.

This year- we are also excited to give a monetary donation to Dayton Children’s Hospital in return for helping us staff the Free Kids Zone with members of their Womens’ Board!

Our dunk tank operates as a fundraiser for Miamisburg sports teams. They pay nothing and get to keep all the proceeds! Last year- the Miamisburg High School Ladies Basketball Team was able to get the whole team new shoes! We are excited for this team to return in 2025!

Our 50/50 raffle will fundraise money for a new annual scholarship we are offering in honor of Ron Holp. This scholarship will go to a Miamisburg High School Senior who impacts the community positively (just like Ron did!)
