PRESS RELEASE- This special event will take place in Downtown Ellijay starting at 10:00 AM on Saturday, October 11th. The annual Georgia Apple Festival parade is a great opportunity to bring the community together to celebrate with the Apple Capital!

This year’s theme, “Happily Ever Ellijay” is inspired by the charm, beauty, and bounty of Gilmer County, and is a chance to celebrate everything that makes our home so special. From orchards to the mountains, Ellijay feels like a fairytale. This free, family-friendly event is the perfect way to kick off the first weekend of the Georgia Apple Festival.
