Summersville Lighthouse Festival

Join us for the Summersville Lighthouse Festival, a heartfelt celebration of National Lighthouse Day and the community that built West Virginia’s only working lighthouse. Set against the serene backdrop of Summersville Lake in Mount Nebo, this festival offers a warm, inclusive atmosphere where families, friends, and visitors of all ages can create lasting memories together.

From August 8 to August 9, 2026, the festival will feature live music performances at the gazebo, a vintage market with antiques and collectibles, and a variety of delicious food from local vendors. Engage in friendly raffles, explore the vintage market, and enjoy the lively ambiance in the shadow of the lighthouse. The event is free to attend, with donations encouraged to support local organizations.

Whether you’re a family seeking fun activities, a couple looking for a romantic lakeside setting, or a group of friends eager to experience local culture, the Summersville Lighthouse Festival offers something for everyone. Bring your picnic blankets, folding chairs, and sunscreen to fully enjoy the outdoor festivities.
