About the event
Take a step back in time with us to celebrate all things antique as we commemorate the 124th anniversary of The Great Fire - a fast-acting terror that tore through the town in 1899 and turned her to embers. Lo' and behold, that wasn't going to stop the community - and the next morning the post office and a few other stores were already up and running. Within weeks, a massive portion of the town had risen from the ashes, now constructed of brick instead of wood.
This two day festival is a fundraising event for the Victor Volunteer Fire Department. Our team up here is made up, save for one man, of all volunteer citizens who jump into the line of danger to protect the community - and they are extremely underfunded in doing so. With the dramatic uptick in fire season awareness, and the severity of fire season in general, we want to provide a resource to the community to learn about fire safety while also having an amazing time!
We will have fire safety demonstration, hose pulling competitions, fundraising relays, fire performances after dark, and antique car clubs. The streets will be filled with pinup and vintage fashion, vendors, and family friendly fun across the board! If you would like to vend this event, please purchase your booth space today!
