Twins Days, Annual festival in Twinsburg, Ohio, United States
Twins Days is an annual festival in Twinsburg, Ohio, that draws thousands of twin pairs who compete in contests, march in parades, and enjoy entertainment throughout the first weekend of August. The grounds feature multiple zones with vendor booths, stages, and activity areas that host events from morning through evening.
The festival started in 1976 with just 36 twin pairs and was created by Ray Diersing, Sage Hiller, and Ari Hiller. It has grown from that small gathering into one of the world's largest twin reunions.
The festival centers on celebrating the bond between twins, and you will see pairs dressed alike throughout the grounds and streets. This gathering has become a place where twins feel they belong and where their special connection is openly recognized and honored.
Entry is affordable and gives you access to all festival events and vendor areas on the grounds. It helps to arrive early to get good spots for the parade and to avoid the longest crowds.
Universities and research institutions use the festival to study twins and genetic traits through scientific investigations. Many twin pairs volunteer for these studies, contributing to research that helps scientists understand genetics better.
