Destination Romeo

Historic Romeo is so much more than a destination — it’s a place to stroll, discover, and come back to again and again. Downtown Romeo has charming shops, restaurants, fabulous golf courses, orchards offering farm‑fresh produce and mouthwatering baked goods, Museums, Art galleries, and Main Street stores full of unique finds.

We love our events and think you will too. We repeat many of our events ie Victorian Festival, Ladies Night Out, Sidewalk sales, The Golden Girls, two new one’s last year to make annual were Witches and Warlocks and poker night. We have a few surprises up our sleeve for this year. so please stay tuned.

Nearing the notoriety of Peach Festival is “Terror on Tillson Street” Check this link out https://www.michigan.org/article/trip-idea/inside-look-terror-tillson-pure-michigan-halloween-experience. Just believe me when I tell you this event is spectacular, the homeowners are true producers, artists and crafters achieving the highest stars an event could get.

Peach Festival is by far Romeos largest and has been on Labor Day weekend for over 70 years. It’s a 4 day event with 3 parades, a large carnival, Beer tents of all kinds, Contests of many types and the town is open to engage you.

Another great peach festival event, Little Miss Peach Blossom, it was 1979, Mrs. Jeanette Hudson directed and produced a wonderful evening event, complete with the contestants coming onto stage first in their casual wear, second was talent, third was answering a question and finally dress-up. It was a big day for Little Miss Peach Blossom and her court as they traveled to the Detroit Zoo on August 29, 1979, and then back to Romeo to have dinner as guests of the Harvest Table, On Monday they rode in all the parades.
