MILTON, Ga., Oct. 4, 2013 - Don't forget that tomorrow, Saturday, Oct. 5, the whole family can enjoy Crabapple Fest from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. in historic downtown Crabapple.
Crabapple Fest will see the City of Milton and non-profit Crabapple Community Association (CCA) combine their two popular events - the 5,000-person Milton Roundup and 10,000-person Crossroads at Crabapple Antique and Arts Festival - into one massive destination festival.
The best from each event will greet the community, including:
- antiques and art from nearly 80 juried vendors
- a music and entertainment stage with local and touring acts, plus roaming musicians
- games, rides and activities for kids
- great food from local restaurants and food trucks
- for the first time, beer, wine and cocktails in the festival grounds
Unlike previous years, the expanded Crabapple Fest will sprawl across the crossroads of the historic community. Both Crabapple and Broadwell roads will be shut down, with vendors dotting the usually busy intersections.
Broadwell Road will close Friday, Oct. 4 at 6 p.m. Click here for a detour map. Crabapple Road will close at 6 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 5. Click here for a detour map. Both will reopen Saturday, Oct. 5 after the festival ends.
Free parking and three shuttles will be available all day from Milton High, Northwestern Middle and Crabapple Crossing Elementary schools and Crabapple Baptist Church. The shuttles will run from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. to accommodate festival-goers.
