Each July, Dyer celebrates its heritage with a six-day festival. The Dyer Station Celebration features old fashioned, down home fun. A parade, contest and competitions highlight the event, plus many other events designed to appeal to everyone.If there is a set purpose for the celebration, it is to help the community reach its fullest potential and to do so without sacrificing the small town qualities that make Dyer and its inhabitants so special. Dyer also hosts a wonderful Christmas Parade.
For more information on both events, see the ACTIVITIES & EVENTS section.
