Upcoming Festival Weekend: October 6-9, 2022

Over 450 Festivals: All states are having many great festivals this weekend.

The map is really beautiful this weekend with Festival City Pins spread all about the various states. While northern states are still holding on with tons of Harvest Festivals and Oktoberfests, the southern states are really getting into it with some great Seafood Festivals, Greek Festivals and Festivals about Critters (ie Albino Skunks).

Except for a few pockets on the map, there should be events nearby for everyone check out and explore, so please look to the map and comb through the festival lists carefully. You never know what you’re going to find.

In areas struck by Hurricane Ian and recent bad weather, be sure to double-check events before attending. I did comb through the Florida Festival Guide and remove a few festivals that were cancelled but most are either still going on or their websites weren’t yet updated.

Here’s are some interesting festivals going on in each state:

Alabama
A Shrimp Fest, Mushroom Fest, Cotton Fest and a Swedish Fest. Plenty of Harvest Festivals going on as well.

Florida
Cultural Festivals celebrate Greek, Serbian, Hispanic, Brazilian, and German cultures. There are also Seafood, Pirate, Dragon Boat, Pride and Farm Festivals.
