Annual Machias Wild Blueberry Festival is This Weekend August 15-17 [SCHEDULE]

You will be in for a berry, berry, blueberry good time this coming weekend, August 15-17 in Machias for the Annual Machias Wild Blueberry Festival.

You won't want to miss the the original 2025 Machias Wild Blueberry Festival Musical Comedy, with the Pringle Family Re-enactors as they give you outlandish takes on imagined moments that could have happened. It's a time-traveling musical comedy that berry funny and historically sketchy! It will be performed on August 14-16 at 7 p.m. at the Centre Street Congregational Church.
