Apple Butter Festival
Columbus Day weekend in October
October 8 & 9, 2016

Annually since 1974, the Apple Butter Festival fills the park and streets of downtown Berkeley Springs on Saturday and Sunday of Columbus Day weekend in October.

The traditional harvest festival is kicked off by a nostalgic hometown parade on Saturday morning followed by two days worth of family-friendly games and contests, music, country food, fine arts and local crafts. Undisputed star of the festival is the spicy apple butter stirred in giant copper kettles in the middle of the square.

With no admission fee and activities for all ages, this is the perfect day or weekend experience for everyone from grandma to the kids.

Lodging for Apple Butter Festival weekend is always at a premium. Book your space early. Check back festival week for last minute vacancies.

Even though this broadcast is in Spanish it gives you an idea of all the fun you can have.
