Festival of Combustion

Join Rivers of Steel on October 5 at the Carrie Blast Furnaces for the Festival of Combustion, a family-friendly extravaganza that celebrates industrial arts and American crafts with activities, trade demos, tours, fireworks & more!

Showcasing the creativity of our region’s artists, makers, and builders, the Festival of Combustion takes inspiration from the iron-making legacy of the Carrie Blast Furnaces. An all-day iron pour is at the heart of the festival!

Check out demonstrations by blacksmiths, glassblowers, welders, and metal fabricators and more. Get creative with hands-on activities for all. After dark, check out a glowing ceramic reveal, followed by fireworks over the furnaces!

Tours, live music, food trucks, and a makers’ marketplace round out the experience. It’s a day of fun for everyone!

Tickets are $20 in advance; kids under 18 are free.
