This longstanding tradition includes the crowing of Old King Coal, Princess Flame and her court, a coal miner's memorial service, job fair, parade, and a downtown festival filled with food, rides, games, vendors, and free nightly entertainment on the main stage.
The Old King Coal Festival is a family friendly environment.
Bring your lawn chair and enjoy West Frankfort's hospitality.
