Duluth Fall Festival

The Duluth Fall Festival is a yearly event that takes place the last weekend in September.  A family fun occasion, this two day festival has a parade, concert, 5K road race and lots of arts and crafts!  The Duluth Fall Festival boasts over 200 arts, crafts and food vendors to ensure there is something for everyone.

Kicking off the Duluth Fall Festival on Saturday morning is the parade!  And of course everyone loves a parade!  Through the streets of Duluth, local middle and high school orchestras and bands join in with antique cars, local dignitaries, scouts and dancers to make this parade a success each year.  The Duluth Fall Festival Parade will definitely leave you and your family smiling and ready for all the weekend has to offer!

Following the parade, patrons will enjoy a variety of entertainment.  From cheerleaders to jazz, trivia to Motown the festival assures there is something for everyone.  The Arts and Craft booths offer a variety of products.  Each participating vendor must sell hand-made or hand decorated items only.  After enjoying the parade, participating in kid’s games, having your face painted and tasting lots of great food day one ends with everyone gathered together to enjoy a big concert on the Town Green.

Day two begins with a 5K Road Race through downtown Duluth.  Numbers of people come to watch their friends and family take to the street in sneakers and do their best to cross the finish line.  For those interested in participating in the race, go to www.duluthfallfestival.com to fill out an application.  After the race United Methodist Church holds a community worship service and the remainder of Sunday is full of more entertainment and great food.  For information on the Duluth Fall Festival email them at info@duluthfallfestival.com.
