The Friendly Invasion

Once home to the American Air Force, Ernest Harmon Air Force Base saw a large and continuous influx of American service men from 1941-1966. Now, we celebrate the coming together of cultures, the friendships and long lasting memories during the Friendly Invasion Festival held each July. We have a variety of events such as historical walking tours, Brunch on the Base, ATV tours, bonfires, live theatre, and open air concerts. Stephenville - We're worth the detour!
