Perfect Fall Weather On Tap For Crabapple Fest

Residents have just two more days before the popular Crabapple Fest returns to Milton.

Scheduled for 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 4 in downtown Crabapple, the popular festival involves the city of Milton and non-profit Crabapple Community Association coming together to bring arts and family-friendly entertainment for residents to enjoy.

Once again, the fall festival will include:

• antiques and art from nearly 100 juried vendors.
• a music and entertainment stage featuring Banks and Shane.
• games, rides and activities for kids.
• an Oktoberfest Biergarten by the Olde Blind Dog Irish Pub.
• a game day screen featuring SEC college football action from Carl Black of Roswell Buick GMC Dealer.

Seasonal temperatures will be on tap for residents who plan to get outdoors to enjoy Crabapple Fest. Festival goers will enjoy sunny skies and highs around 62 degrees, according to the National Weather Service.

“We’ve really pulled out all the stops this year to bring everyone more of what they love about the festival,” said Peyton Jamison, president of CCA. “We’ll have great antiques and art, incredible performances and the best of North Fulton’s food scene. It will be a day to remember for the whole family.”

Parking and attendance, as always, are free. Shuttles will be available all day from Crabapple Crossing Elementary School and Crabapple Baptist Church.
