The big ones every year in Asheville
The events the calendar builds itself around — exact dates land in the feed above as each year's details firm up.
- Shindig on the Green · Saturday evenings, late June–early September
Free old-time and bluegrass on the Pack Square Park lawn since 1967. Bring a chair. - Mountain Dance & Folk Festival · early August
Running since 1928 — the oldest folk festival in the United States. - Goombay Festival · late summer
The Block's Caribbean- and African-rooted street festival, hosted by the YMI Cultural Center. - NC Mountain State Fair · September, at the WNC Ag Center in Fletcher
Ten days of livestock barns, rides, and fair food — the region's real county fair. - Peak leaf color · mid–late October around town, earlier up high
See the leaf-season guide for the elevation timeline. - Christmas at Biltmore · early November–early January
The house dressed for the holidays; candlelight evenings sell out early.
