The Route 66 Blue Hippo Festival, is June 6, 2026, from 4:00PM to 9:00PM. The festival is themed around Edmond’s fun Route 66 icon, the Blue Hippo. Free family-friendly activities, performances, artists and all things blue, will take place at the Edmond History Museum and in Stephenson Park in Edmond, Oklahoma.
Quirky and Educational: In addition to carnival-style activities, visitors can participate in hippo and Route 66 Trivia throughout the park. Be part of a community art project and hippo-themed activities, such as the Hungry Hungry Hippo game station. Try to win a Hot Wheels race, tour the Historic Rodkey House and American Legion Hut, or purchase one of the hippo art pieces being created LIVE during the festival. Just to create the right atmosphere, 20 blue classic cars will line the park and musicians will perform the BLUES, BLUEgrass, and old-fashioned Rock-n-Roll music in the new pavilion.
