The International Horseradish Festival is a unique and flavorful celebration, held annually over the first weekend of June in Collinsville, Illinois, the “Horseradish Capital of the World.” This event brings together thousands of visitors to enjoy everything horseradish — tasty dishes made with horseradish, tastings, root grinding demonstrations, and local food vendors serving up zesty dishes. It’s not just about the heat; the festival also features live music, a car show, a 5K run, and family-friendly activities, making it a vibrant and fun celebration of this spicy root. In 2025, the two-day International Horseradish Festival will take place on Friday, June 6th and Saturday, June 7th.
