  • A 5K walk/run
  • Several Pageants (for all ages)
  • A talent show
  • Parade
  • Festival

For 2016: It’s all taking place September 24 – October 1. 

The festival (basically all day October 1) and parade (10:30 – noon October 1) are definitely the main event.  It all takes place on Main St. in Taylorsville.  They will have acts performing on the main stage throughout the day like many country music acts, the winners of the talent show, an father/son Elvis tribute and from 8-11pm Judge Angus Band will take the stage to close out the day.

Also, on the street, there will be dance team and gymnastics performances as well as two re-enacted Cowboy Posse shoot outs!  That’s something to see!

They have a Facebook page you can follow for more details.
