Major Prize Drawing

Each year during the Sweet Corn Festival, there are major prize ticket drawings nightly for a building full of prizes! These tickets are sold leading up to the festival and then throughout the duration of the festival.
 
Major prize tickets can be purchased from numerous nonprofit organizations that are part of our festival family or from any Millersport Lion member. During the Sweet Corn Festival the only place to purchase a chance to win is at the Major Prize Building located at Founders Commons, only a few feet from the place to purchase our delicious, hot buttered sweet corn. The tickets are affordable at $2 each or $5 for a book of 3 tickets. Buy as many as you want, no limit to the number of prizes you can win!

Concessions – Food!

The festival grounds is full of delicious food for the entire week of the festival! All food and game concessions (booths) at the Millersport Lions Sweet Corn Festival are operated and staffed by NON-PROFIT, CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS from throughout the Central Ohio area. We are proud of this tradition that we have been able to maintain since the very first festival in 1946.

Many of these groups earn their entire operating budgets for the following year during this annual four-day event, plus raising additional funds for their community and civic improvement projects.
