2026 Spring Bluebird Festival

Saturday, March 28, 2026

Morris Lawrence Building at Washtenaw Community College

Ann Arbor, Michigan

The Michigan Bluebird Society is proud and pleased to announce the 2026 Spring Bluebird Festival! This annual all day event will be a day of fun and education with the focus on Eastern Bluebirds and other cavity-nesting birds in the state of Michigan. We will be returning to the Morris Lawrence Building at Washtenaw Community College in Ann Arbor for this event. The event is geared toward any individual, family or group who is interested in learning how to use nest boxes, feeders, plantings and land management to encourage nesting birds such as Bluebirds. Start off your nesting season on the right path by attending this fun, educational and informational event. Just a few things you can expect at the festival are:

• Informative programs on bluebirds and other native birds

• A Bluebird Expert Panel Discussion - Get all of your Bluebird questions answered

• A Bluebird/Nature Expo - filled with educational exhibits, local environmental groups, and vendors where you can learn things like how to use native plantings to attract more birds and other wildlife

• The MBS Store where you can purchase nest boxes, hardware, and other things necessary to attract nesting bluebirds

• Talk to experienced Bluebirders one-on-one

• New in 2026 - We will have 3 Chirp & Chat Sessions each discussing a different subject giving you vital information to be a bluebird landlord
