A calendar packed with fall fun:
Currahee Military Weekend: September 29 – October 2, 2022
In 1942 soldiers arrived at Currahee Mountain for training as a new type of soldier – a paratrooper. This weekend celebrates those WW2 Veterans with shows at the Historic Ritz Theatre, USO-Style Swing Dance, Currahee Challenge Run, Live Historian Encampments, Veterans Parade, a downtown battle reenactment, and more.
Harvest Festival: October 29 – October 30, 2022
Set against a backdrop of blazing fall colors and flavored with the scent of roasting peanuts and mulling spices, one of the South’s most enduring festivals returns to Toccoa in October as it has every fall since 1978. Staged the last weekend in October, the festival features more than 160 vendors featuring homemade crafts, hand baked goods, and homegrown merchandise. The event hours are from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday.
