Princeton, MN has a long tradition of coming together to celebrate home-town pride through fun community events like the Rum River Festival in June. The one day festival gets summer started with a bang! The Rum River Festival begins with a Family Friendly 5K Run/Walk. Then, cool down while shopping at local stores and at the Arts & Craft Fair. Pick your favorite spot to watch +100 units and 10 marching bands go by in our annual parade! Buy a Lucky Duck ticket at one of these Locations and cheer your Duck on during the Lucky Duck Race on the Rum River. Enjoy a tasty Pork Chop and listen to live music at Riverside Park.
