Friday, May 2 & Saturday, May 3, 2025
Celebrating local Appalachian culture, the resilience of our community, and our special connection to the Appalachian Trail.
Festivities include live music, games, vendors, Appalachian storytelling, our famous Duck Race, and more.
Presented by our new nonprofit, Rebuild Hot Springs Area.
Where better to celebrate the Appalachian Trail than in the town of Hot Springs, NC, where the AT runs through the heart of downtown and crosses one of the oldest rivers in the world–the French Broad River? Celebrate the outdoors all weekend long, with events Friday afternoon, festivities all day Saturday, and a hearty breakfast on Sunday morning.
