The annual event, which was first held in 1983, was canceled in 2022 after it was unable to line up a carnival or enough volunteers to help organize the event.
“You have to book carnivals 12 months in advance at a minimum, and our contract ended when COVID hit,” said Lindenfest President Melissa Forsberg, who joined the organization last year. “We didn’t have Lindenfest in 2020, and then once everything started opening back up, the carnivals that were still out there were completely booked.”After securing new committee members, as well as a carnival, Lindenhurst’s annual festival was able to return for its 40th year.
While the event is four-days long, the planning process takes around a year and is dependent upon a team of volunteers, according to Forsberg.

Murray said that she had been coming to Lindenfest since she “was a little kid,” but that attending as a queen was a unique experience.“Being here as a queen has been a totally amazing experience,” she said. “It’s something that I never thought would be possible. It’s so great that the community can come together and celebrate the work that these board members do all year long. Everyone is having a really amazing time with the food, the carnival games and all of the entertainment.
