Brighton Applefest

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Brighton's Applefest was created in 1975 by the merchants of Brighton, Ontario to promote the Brighton area, and the apple-based culture around it. It is now Brighton's largest yearly event, taking place annually during the last week of September.

The festival offers a variety of attractions. Its primary draw is its parade, and a street festival featuring fresh foods and local crafts. Other attractions include hayrides, a classic car show, live music, and a children's amusement park, in addition to a plethora of vendors selling local arts and crafts. If purchasing food be sure to grab some of Brians Homemade fudge, delicious. It is an interesting slice of rural Ontario life.

Apple bobbing contests are common in Canada, Land of Adam Senour.
