Apricot Fest

Head to Catawba Island this summer for a two-day celebration that brings together live music, local vendors, and plenty of delicious food options from food trucks. The festival centers around the release of a special apricot-inspired beer, but there's genuinely something for everyone to enjoy. Browse handmade crafts and unique goods from regional vendors while soaking in performances from talented musicians throughout the weekend. Kids will love the dedicated Kid Zone, which features a petting zoo, bounce house, and other family-friendly activities to keep them entertained. If your family is up for a little friendly competition, there's also a 0.5K fun-run where participants can walk, jog, or run at their own pace before celebrating at the finish line. With activities spanning both days, good food, live entertainment, and a relaxed summer atmosphere, this festival offers a nice way to spend a weekend with family and friends.
