The City of Fairfax would like to invite you to participate in the 36th annual Fall Festival. What started out as a small market for artisans to display their wares has grown to a festival with over 400 arts, crafts, information, food & gourmet food vendors, children's activities, classic car show, amusement rides and fabulous musical entertainment. This year's festival hosts three stages with music and entertainment for all ages.  Even though we have grown up, we still consider ourselves very much a hometown community with a hometown festival.
