The Great Lakes Bat Festival was an annual two-day event that started in 2002 and began in the Great Lakes region.[1] The festival later expanded to different state divisions, which included the Illinois Bat Festival,[2] the Indiana State University Bat Festival,[3][4][5] the Minnesota Bat Festival,[6] and the Wisconsin Bat Festival.[3] It was founded and organized by the Organization for Bat Conservation until the organization's dissolution in 2018.

The goals of the Great Lakes Bat Festival were to highlight the diversity of life on earth, educate people on bats and explain the need for conservation.[7] The festival included live bat programs presented by the Organization for Bat Conservation, featuring bats from around the world.[8]

Evening events included demonstrations from bat researchers on various research techniques, such as radio-tagging and/or light-tagging.[9]
