The National Apple Harvest Festival returns to the heart of Pennsylvania apple country, offering two full weekends of fall fun in scenic Adams County.

Held at the South Mountain Fairgrounds in Biglerville, this beloved event features more than 300 arts and crafts vendors, incredible food, and nonstop entertainment. Guests can sip fresh apple cider, enjoy classic favorites like kettle corn and barbecue, and explore a wide range of apple-inspired treats while taking in live music, magic shows, and hands-on demonstrations.

From antique farm equipment and cider presses to orchard tours, hayrides, and chainsaw carving, the festival blends tradition with interactive fun. Families can enjoy activities like pony rides, a petting zoo, rock climbing, and the Kids’ Kraft Korner, while strolling characters like Johnny Appleseed add to the festive atmosphere.

More than just a celebration of the season, the festival supports the community, with proceeds benefiting local parks, programs, and charitable initiatives.

The festival takes place rain or shine. Admission includes parking, shuttle or wagon transportation, and access to all entertainment, exhibits, and orchard tours.
