FallFest is more than a festival—it’s a chance to experience everything our downtown has to offer! While you’re here, be sure to shop, dine, and explore the many wonderful local businesses on Main Street, throughout downtown Walnut Cove, and along your way into town. From unique boutiques and specialty shops to restaurants and local businesses, you’ll find plenty to discover while supporting the businesses that help make our community special.
Bring your family, invite your friends, and enjoy a fun-filled afternoon celebrating everything that makes Walnut Cove a great place to live, work, and visit.
Vendor Information: Registration links have already been sent to vendors who have participated in our past events. If you’re a new vendor interested in joining us, the only official vendor registration link will be posted on The Cove Group’s Facebook page in the next few days.
Please be cautious of scammers. Unfortunately, fake profiles sometimes appear in event comments claiming to offer vendor spaces or collecting registration fees. The Cove Group will only use one official registration link. If you see a suspicious comment or profile, please report it to Facebook and send us the link or a screenshot so we can take action as quickly as possible.
FallFest is proudly presented by The Cove Group, a local nonprofit dedicated to bringing our community together through community events, beautification projects, and family-friendly activities throughout the year.
Be sure to click “Interested” or “Going” on this event to stay up to date as we announce vendors, food trucks, entertainment, activities, and more in the weeks ahead. We can’t wait to see you on Main Street this September!
That wording is friendly, doesn’t alarm people, and clearly tells vendors there is only one official registration link, which should help reduce scam issues.
