Super Fall Festival Weekend: September 28

It’s another weekend of over 500 festivals with Davy Crockett, Daniel Boone, Black Bears, Elk, UFO’s, Sorghum, Molasses, Buckwheat and Lobster.

This weekend, Festival Fans there are nearly 550 festivals.

Many of them are Fall Festivals or Harvest Festivals or are of the Oktoberfest variety. So if you love Autumn, your prayers are being answered this weekend and during the many weekends to come.

But there is also a nice amount of variety as the heading above suggests. Here is where you can find each of the above-mentioned festivals:

Davy Crockett Days (Rutherford, Tennessee): while there are activities throughout the week, Saturday is the day with food vendors, arts and crafts, a parade, fireworks, music and Lil’ Davy’s Bear Hunt.
Daniel Boone Festival (Barbourville, Kentucky): this festival opens Sunday with a baby pageant and extends into next week with a carnival, craft village, primitive camp, pioneer village, entertainment and more.
Black Bear Festival (Curran, Michigan): Curran is the Black Bear Capital of Michigan and they celebrate with food trucks, a car show, vendors and more.
Elk Festival (Atlanta, Michigan): Music, chainsaw carvers, pet parade, vendors, food!
Route 66 UFO Festival (Livingston, Illinois): UFO games, car cruise-in, Alien costume contest, vendors, live music!
Sorghum Festival (Springfield, Kentucky): frog jumping contest, dog show, cruise-in, music, vendors and sorghum.
West Virginia Molasses Festival (Arnoldsburg, West Virginia): Carnival rides, mechanical bull, food trucks, vendors, pancake supper, music and more.
Preston County Buckwheat Festival (Kingwood, West Virginia): Sizable festival with all sorts of vendors, rides, food trucks and a pancake supper worth checking out (Review).

Also this weekend, there are Music Festivals, Cultural Festivals, Beer and Wine Festivals, Food Festivals, Oktoberfests and more!

With so many festivals, I’m going to highlight the festivals that look interesting to me – just keep in mind that I may think it’s interesting by name or topic alone. I can’t be knowledgeable about what every festival is like, and there’s a lot going on this weekend.

But maybe highlighting will help you notice some festivals you may have overlooked.

You can write in to me and suggest the festivals that you love and I will highlight those festivals in this color.
