Annual Pelican Festival
October 1, 2026 – October 4, 2026
The Grand Lake Association welcomes you to the 43rd Annual Pelican Festival. We’re looking forward to an exciting, entertaining event and hope you’ll join us as we celebrate the return of the American White Pelican to the waters of Northeast Oklahoma’s beautiful Grand Lake O’ the Cherokees.
Plans are underway for the 2026 Festival that will feature a carnival; food trucks; arts and crafts vendors; the car, truck and bike show organized by the Grove Masonic Lodge; live and exciting entertainment under the tent Friday and Saturday night; and other fall festivities for the whole family. This event will take place at the Wolf Creek Park (963 N 16th St) Grove, OK 74344.
