Who could possibly throw a bigger party than Steubenville's Dean Martin?


It's summer in the city, and we know what that means: festival time. Clevelanders will find an event, or two, to celebrate almost every weekend. You probably know about many of the big fairs and feasts -- the Cuyahoga County Fair, the Feast of the Assumption, Oktoberfest, etc. -- but there's much more to our festival scene. Read on for some of The Best (Lesser Known) Fests to Discover This Summer:


Dean Martin Festival, various locations in Steubenville, Thursday, June 18-Sunday, June 21, 1-800-510-4442, deanmartinsteubenville.com: Raise a glass -- or two, or three -- to one of Ohio's most famous sons. Held each year in the legendary Rat Packer and partier's hometown, the Martin fest pays homage to the singer's humble roots (he was a blackjack dealer and welterweight boxer) and eventual stardom. Events include tours (see the church where young Dino served as an altar boy!), parades, impersonators galore, screenings of Martin films, a meet-and-greet with Martin's daughter Deana, and even a meatball-eating contest. Prices vary per event; see the Web site for the full schedule.
