Lake Shelbyville is visited by nearly 3 million people on any given year, that number is likely grow now that the IHSA State Bass Fishing Tournament has found it’s new home. More than 60 teams made their way to the lake for the first time in 2025, and will continue to do so for years to come. Freddie Frye, Executive Director for the Shelby County Office of Tourism, shares the successful tournament despite some delays due to weather.

Tower Hill will play host to their Summer Solstice and Artisan Market on Saturday, June 14th. Frye states that proceeds raised will go towards supporting the park.

As we inch closer to the Fourth of July, several communities in Shelby County will be putting on their own firework shows. The City of Shelbyville expects to hold their show  the night of the 4th, with plans for events in the days before.
