Residents are invited to kick off the fall season with their families at the city of Holly Springs’ 12th Annual Autumn Fest.

The city’s flagship event will be held from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 3. You can shop until you drop with arts and crafts vendors, check out food trucks, watch local talent perform on the entertainment stage and bring the kids to enjoy our giant children’s area.

Admission is free, and so are the many children’s activities.

Over 70 arts and crafts vendors will fill Barrett Park with homemade jams and breads, specialty candles, one-of-a-kind decorative wreaths, handmade jewelry, home décor items and much more.

If you need to take a break from checking out the dozens of vendors, you’ll be able to grab a snack from one of the many concessionaires.

Brooke Lynn’s Own Sticks and Cones, C’est Tout Bon 2 Eat, and Pigs-N-Heat BBQ food trucks will be joining this year’s line up. Additionally, Holly Springs’ own Las Palmas will serving up their delicious tacos and nachos as well. As expected, festival favorites such as funnel cakes, cotton candy and King of Pops’ fresh popsicles will be on hand for residents to enjoy.

The children’s area will not only have some great crafts to complete at the park and take home, but will also feature a huge four-person rock climbing wall, double bungee trampoline, interactive inflatables and carnival games. As always, Autumn Fest’s children’s area is rounded out with a hay ride around the park.

For those who’d like to enjoy some musical entertainment, you will not be disappointed. Holly Springs is set to showcase local talent on its entertainment stage.

This year’s lineup includes: Aspen Countryman from 11 a.m. to noon; Woodstock School of Ballet at 1 p.m.; PowerTaps Clogging at 2 p.m.; and the City Council Band rocking the park from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m.

Barrett Park is located at 120 Park Lane in Holly Springs. While there is limited parking at the park, a shuttle will run throughout the day from the park to Holly Springs Elementary and Hickory Road Baptist Church.
