Stroll On State Celebrates 7 Years with 7 New Features

Stroll On State announced seven new additions, including extended hours.

Stroll On State is rapidly approaching, where did the year go? But really, in all awesome seriousness, the festival is adding seven new features to Rockford's biggest annual event. Expanded hours, more shopping, and added attractions will make the already big festival even bigger.

Stroll on State, November 30 from 2pm-9pm in downtown Rockford, is adding more jolly in 2019. Our friends at MyStateline.com highlighted some of these new features, which include an added third performance stage (the Sleigh Bell stage), a new interactive kids' area with live reindeer (Strollville), the expansion of Frosty's Merry Market, and live performances of "A Christmas Story" and "Newsies."
