Eagleville will host its annual day long, downtown street festival September 24, 2016. Marking the first weekend of fall, plans for the event include two stages featuring musicians performing throughout the day, a children’s area with fun jumps and games, a petting zoo, and of course a variety of vendors.
“To date, about 75 vendor booth spaces have been reserved and more are coming in every day,” according to City Manager Andrew Ellard. “Last year’s Fall Festival was a first for Eagleville in several years, and saw a great crowd and lots of community support. With even more musicians this year, we anticipate another great turnout on the 24th.”
Event organizers have set the day’s schedule for entertainment. The stage sponsored by Middle Tennessee Electric Membership Corporation (MTEMC) will be located at the intersection of Main Street (Hwy 41 A) and Old Highway 99. The stage sponsored by Saint Thomas Rutherford Hospital (STRH) will be located just off of North Main Street, in a grassy area beside Maple Street Grill. The day’s music schedule is as follows:
