More to do and always great fun! The one-day festival has grown into the region’s premier juried arts and crafts event and celebration of all things apple. Waynesville NC, nestled in the Smoky Mountains, is the perfect spot to enjoy a glorious fall day filled with fun. This year’s festival will feature exhibitors, live entertainment and great food. Come and be among the crowd of festival goers strolling the street.

Celebrate our farming and pioneer past during this year’s Apple Festival. Haywood County is home to an antique apple orchard, Barber’s Orchard, with varieties of apples you won’t find anywhere else! Try your hand at hand-cranking ice cream or pressing apple cider, then taste the fruit of your labor. Music, dancing, crafts and old-fashioned games make this event fun for the whole family!
