Chum upgrades to ‘Super’ Rhubarb Fest for 50th anniversary

As commemoration for the 50th anniversary - this festival will be bigger than ever! More food, more fun.

Chum’s annual Rhubarb Festival will be a Super Rhubarb Festival in 2024. It’s the organization’s 50th anniversary.

“We decided to make it bigger than ever,” Director of Communication and Marketing Bradley Zwagerman said. “There’s going to be more food, more games, and it’s just going to be more fun overall.”

The day includes live music, food, raffles, races, and more. The food tent will have rhubarb brats, rhubarb pie, rhubarb lemonade, and more.

Organizers are still looking for volunteers to make the event run smoothly. Zwagerman said there are 180 open positions that need filling.

Rhubarb Fest goes from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, June 29 at the Stella Maris Academy in Duluth.
