Autumn Leaves Festival

Autumn Leaves Festival

Downtown Mount Airy | autumnleavesfestival.com

No wonder folks make their way to the Autumn Leaves Festival in Mount Airy each October! Cooler weather, colorful leaves, and street-filled tents with hundreds of vendors including artisans and craftspeople, food purveyors (including fresh apple butter made on-site), a Kidzone, and talented musicians translate to loads of fun.

The festival showcases the rich musical heritage of the region as well as a juried craft show, the perfect place to do a little Christmas shopping while enjoying the sights, sounds and flavors of an autumn festival. Held in the downtown area of the town that is lovingly referred to as Mayberry by fans of The Andy Griffith Show, the Autumn Leaves Festival is a great place to celebrate the autumn season. Free and paid parking is available.
