AUDIO: Christ Child Festival Looking for Twice As Many Volunteers Amid 2025 Changes

11/18/2025

Emphasizing the true meaning of Christmas is the goal of one of Fort Wayne’s cherished holiday traditions, the Christ Child Festival. For the first time this year, the festival will be held simultaneously at two locations – the Allen County Public Library main branch and Parkview Field’s Lincoln Financial Event Center – along with plans to introduce a live Nativity at Ewing and Brackenridge Streets. That means there’s a need for twice as many volunteers this year. Judi Hapke with the Christ Child Festival says…


If you’re interested in volunteering, Hapke says any position is being accepted. The Christ Child Festival will have a variety of crafts, activities, and more that families and kids can take home. It’s taking place on Wednesday, November 26th and is free to attend at Parkview Field’s Lincoln Financial Event Center from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. that day and from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. that evening at the Allen County Public Library main branch. Click here to learn about volunteering opportunities and more details on the festival's main website.
