Ahhh, we can hardly contain ourselves because it’s almost fall festival season in Chattanooga. 🍂 Bluegrass music, tasty beers, campfires, cozy sweaters + knit hats — there is just something special about our city in the autumn months.

But with all the great festivals we DO have, we started thinking about what type of festivals we didn’t have. For example, why we don’t we have a MoonPie festival where we cook MoonPies over a bonfire and sing songs about the moon? What about a coffee festival highlighting all the amazing roasters in the region? How about an old fashioned Renaissance Fest like the Carolina Renaissance Festival & Artisan Marketplace in Asheville? Or how about a Rosé Festival like Drink Pink in Columbia, South Carolina?
