FREE EVENT: 🍁DULUTH FALL FESTIVAL AND PARADE THIS WEEKEND

September 23, 2024

Plan now to come to the 41st annual Duluth Fall Festival on Saturday and Sunday, September 28th & 29th. The Duluth Fall Festival is one of the most successful festivals in the southeast and has won many award and recognitions through the years.

The Festival begins on Saturday morning with a huge parade through the streets of Duluth with thousands of participants. The Parade is followed by an Opening Ceremony on Festival Center stage. Entertainment then takes over the stage for the rest of the day. A second stage is located in Parsons Alley.

Sunday morning starts out with the 5K Donut Dash through Downtown Duluth. This is followed by a worship service, by Duluth First United Methodist Church, on the Town Green. Continuous entertainment at the two stages follows for the rest of the day.

With more than 375 booths, the life of the Festival is found on the streets of Duluth. Vendors sell everything you can imagine, with something for everybody. You will find handmade crafts of every description, including clothing, original art, fall and Christmas decorations, furniture, jewelry, toys, plus, many, many other items. Sponsors present services for improving your life, home, and family. And of course, the star is always the FOOD! FOOD! FOOD!

Proceeds benefit Downtown Duluth and Duluth's non-profits. 

Take the easy way, and come via our FREE shuttle service from three area schools.
