The Oconee Chamber Fall Festival was started in 1974 and today is known as a premiere Arts & Crafts festival. It is held annually on the 3rd Saturday in October, in Historic Downtown Watkinsville. With over 200+ booths and 30,000 in attendance, this one day, outdoor festival is the largest arts & crafts venue in the area.

These craftsman come from all over the Southeast to show their work which includes; jewelry, woodwork, photography, paintings, pottery, candles, and much more.

You can smell the funnel cakes, BBQ and fresh popped kettle corn in the air. Sit, relax and listen to the sounds of the local musicians.

There are plenty of activities for the young and the young at heart; rock climbing wall, spider jump, pony rides, petting zoo, inflatable slides, mechanical bull ride, swing ride, and train rides.

Admission is free along with free offsite parking. Climb on board a hayride which will take you to and from the festival. Hayrides are given from these locations: Southwire on Barnett Shoals Rd. and Harris Shoals Park on Experiment Station Rd.

The annual Scarecrow 5K Road Race and Fun Run are held earlier in the day. This event has grown in popularity over the years. Applications for this race will be available soon on the Scarecrow 5k page on this website.
