Tickets for the 2026 Hog Days Festival will go on sale Monday.

While ticket booth prices have increased slightly, the Hog Days Committee will again offer advance tickets at $10 for a sheet of 12. Tickets can be purchased at Peoples National Bank, Union Federal Savings & Loan, both CSB locations, the Kewanee Chamber of Commerce office and State Bank of Toulon.

Committee member Janie Metscaviz said tickets are also available from committee members and encourages residents to buy early.

“Last year, the tickets barely lasted three weeks,” she said.

During Hog Days, single tickets will increase at the ticket booth from $1.25 to $1.50. Festivalgoers can still save by purchasing 20 tickets for $25 or 50 tickets for $50 at the ticket booth.

This year’s Hog Days Festival runs from Friday, Sept. 4 through Monday, Sept. 7, with the tagline “We Will, We Will Chop You!”
