Long before Beloit’s Riverfest faded into memory, Old Settlers Days kept evolving, growing, and finding new ways to bring the Stateline together every summer. While both festivals became part of local culture, OSD never lost its footing — turning a small-town tradition into one of the region’s biggest summer events powered almost entirely by volunteers and community support.

From carnival lights along the Rock River… to nationally known artists taking the stage in Rockton… Old Settlers Days has become more than a festival. It’s a summer tradition families plan around every year.

And throughout the weekend, Great Lakes Weather Authority powered by City of Beloit News will be monitoring current conditions, radar trends, and festival forecasts to help keep the Stateline informed.
