Upcoming Festival Weekend: October 31 - November 3, 2024

A weekend of transition from the Day of the Dead to the beginning of the Holiday Season.

Welcome back, Festival Fans!

With Halloween this Thursday and the Day of the Dead (Dia de los Muertos) on Saturday, there will definitely be plenty of these celebrations going on this weekend mixed with final Pumpkin, Fall and Harvest Festivals.

But, being that November seems to welcome in the Holiday Season, there will also be all sorts of Christmas Markets and Holiday Festivals as well.

Almost seems like a festival weekend shaped by Tim Burton’s Nightmare Before Christmas with sugar skulls mixed with candy canes…haunted house screams and melodic Christmas carols…macabre costumes and glittery green elf suits.

Sounds fun.

Beyond these Holiday Fests, there’s an interesting assortment of festivals this weekend, including…

a Peanut Festival in Alabama
a Moonshine and Music Festival in Arkansas
Seafood Festivals in Florida
a Whale Festival in Florida
a Chicken Livers and Gizzard Festival in Georgia
a Viking Festival in Kentucky
Pecan Festivals in Alabama, Louisiana, Missouri, North Carolina, South Carolina
a Giant Omelet Celebration in Louisiana
a Sweet Potato Festival in Mississippi
a Poultry Jubilee in North Carolina
a Pierogi Festival in Pennsylvania
a Turnip Green Festivals in Tennessee
a Pie Festival in Tennessee
a Taco Festival in Texas
a Celtic Festival in Texas
a Cocktail and Dessert Festival in Virginia
a Ciderfest in Wisconsin
and more!
