Charlevoix Apple Fest

Michigan Apples and Midwest Fall Foliage

Celebrate peak Autumn foliage and the Michigan apple harvest with a weekend of fun from October 11-13 at the Charlevoix Apple Fest!

Charlevoix Apple Fest

Now that fall has arrived, local apple orchards are picking bushels of fruit in preparation for this famous apple festival. The main event is situated in downtown Charlevoix, with an expansive arts and crafts show spanning from Bridge Park to East Park.

Apple Fest will also feature a petting zoo, face painting, and interactive miniature trains. Meanwhile, the downtown farmers' market will also be in full swing. Here you'll find Michigan maple syrup, local honey, fresh cider, and more. Make sure you stop by the food booths and try an appleflappen or a slice of Irish apple cake. This is your weekend, have fun with it!

Petoskey's Historic Gaslight District

While you're in the area, swing by Petoskey's Historic Gaslight District. This downtown neighborhood abounds with charming shops, wonderful architecture, and great eateries. To top it off, the district presents gorgeous views of Little Traverse Bay, particularly at sunset.
