Head for historic downtown Wylie June 29 for the biggest and best Bluegrass on Ballard ever, presented by Credit Union of Texas. Come early and stay late -- there's lots to see and do all day.

Wylie will indeed be wide awake June 29 for this free festival featuring top bands, a car show, arts and crafts and great food. The event in historic downtown Wylie breathes new life into the city’s longtime moniker, "Wide Awake Wylie," and continues the tradition of drawing citizens and visitors into the heart of the city.

The day begins at 10 am with arts and crafts vendors, a chili cook-off, and great food and goes through the evening with a 200+ car show and bands performing on stage in shady Olde City Park from 2 to 9 pm.

Don't forget to stop by the Carter BloodCare bus and donate blood, then vote for the Wylie Police Department or Wylie Fire Rescue as they compete for bragging rights in the Battle of the Badges.
