FORT WAYNE, Ind. (ADAMS) – The Three Rivers Festival announced the return of its popular 50/50 Raffle.
“With a jackpot that could potentially rise into the hundreds of thousands of dollars, the return of this Three Rivers Festival initiative will give someone an opportunity for a huge payday,” said John Nichter, President of the Three Rivers Festival Board of Directors.
Similar events at other festivals have seen jackpots top a million dollars. Northeast Indiana’s Largest 50/50 also helps sustain the Three Rivers Festival, which is largely funded by donations and grants. “This is a great opportunity for someone to win big,” said Justin Shurley, Executive Director.
New to the raffle this year will be secondary prizes. While one person will win half the pot, other people will have the opportunity to win other prizes.
The 2022 Three Rivers Festival runs July 8-16, 2022. The nine-day festival takes place at Headwaters Park in downtown Fort Wayne with returning guest favorites, including Junk Food Alley, The Downtown Midway, Art in the Park, Children’s Fest, Emporium, nightly entertainment, and more.
