The Freedom Festival Express Through Festival Week

One of the most popular attractions of this year's Freedom Festival was the Freedom Festival Express! Throughout the Festival, the train made appearances at community events and Freedom Festival celebrations, bringing smiles to thousands of children and families across Eastern Iowa.

Whether it was a child's first train ride or a returning family tradition, the Freedom Festival Express created unforgettable memories while adding an extra touch of excitement to Festival events. From parks and parades to special celebrations, the train quickly became a favorite stop for guests of all ages.

As the Freedom Festival continues its mission of providing affordable, family-friendly experiences, the Freedom Festival Express has become a cherished part of the celebration. We can't wait to welcome everyone aboard again next year for even more smiles, laughter, and community fun!

Thank you to our 2026 Freedom Festival Express sponsors for helping us create lasting memories with our community! Folience, Honor and Respect, Veridian, AM Glass Repair, and Nicolet Bank!
