GOLD RUSH DAYS FESTIVAL

Gold Rush Days is Dahlonega’s largest festival of the year—a true fall staple that brings the community together and welcomes thousands of visitors from near and far.

Held annually on the third full weekend in October, this beloved event celebrates the town’s rich history and its place as the site of America’s first major gold rush in 1828.
