Upcoming Fall Festival Weekend: September 19-22, 2024

The Mothman, Oktoberfests, Fall Festivals, Harvest Festivals, Apples, Peanuts, Pumpkins and Pawpaws.

It’s another great festival weekend in just about every state!

Not only are there plenty of Harvest and Fall Festivals, but you have so many Cultural Festivals (including all the Oktoberfests and Hispanic/Latino Festivals during Hispanic Heritage Month), Art Festivals, Music Festivals and Seasonal Food Festivals – Pumpkins, Pawpaws, Peanuts, and Apples.

Here are some specific festivals this weekend…

The St. George Festival (Review) in Fishers, Indiana is a Middle Eastern Festival that offers live music and dancing, all sorts of delicious savory and sweet foods, a marketplace, church tours, and a children’s game area.

The Spoonbread Festival (Review) in Berea, Kentucky is a festival with a great amount of vendors, selling either crafts or representing community organizations. There are also activities, entertainment, food and spoonbread.

The Michigan Renaissance Festival (Review) in Holly, Michigan is a huge Renaissance festival with tons of entertainment, vendors, food and activities.

The Dollywood Harvest Festival (Review) in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee brings artisan vendors, specialty fall menus and a ton of playful Halloween decor throughout the park.

The Mothman Festival (Review) in Point Pleasant, West Virginia celebrates the famous Mothman of Point Pleasant, West Virginia and its warning or cause of the Silver Bridge’s 1967 collapse. The festival has live music, a great assortment of cryptid vendors, nice food options and so much more. It’s a nice time to also visit the museum while visiting.

It’s also Oktoberfest Season, so be sure to check out my Oktoberfest Guide at https://festivalguidesandreviews.com/oktoberfest-guide-2024/ if that is specifically your jam.
