Fall Antique Festival coming to downtown Clinton Sept. 30-Oct. 1
It’s almost time again for the annual Clinch River Fall Antique Festival.
It will be held Friday, Sept. 30, and Saturday, Oct. 1, in Historic Downtown Clinton.
Events begin at noon and continue until 8 p.m. on Friday, and will resume from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday.
This will be the 21st Fall Antique Festival. There has been only one interruption since it began – in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic.
On both days, there will be street vendors, food trucks, live music and special displays and sales showcasing the antiques shops on Main and Market streets.
Market Street will be closed to vehicular traffic so the street vendors and food trucks can set up along Market, Cullom and Eagle Bend streets.
An antique car exhibit show will be held on Saturday.
Also returning is the Beer Garden, where craft brews made in Anderson County will be sold for consumption in that area.
“Easily our biggest event of the year with hundreds of antique vendors lining Market St, this year will be the biggest yet,” Historic Downtown Clinton’s website says.
“We start on Friday at noon and continue through the entire day Saturday, with live music, entertainment, food, beer and more.
“It’s the perfect way to kick off the fall season.”
Plenty of free parking is always available in the city of Clinton’s Commerce Street parking lots, one block west of Market Street.
