Milton’s annual arts and antiques festival takes place the first Saturday of every October in and around Crabapple Road in downtown Milton. That means the 2025 edition will be from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on October 4. We can't wait to see you there!
Join us in and around Crabapple Road, an area that will transformed into a bustling market showcasing more than 100 local antique, craft, and art vendors featuring countless, hand-made, and must-have items. It’s never too early to start thinking about your holiday shopping or find a special something for yourself. (Also, this festival is rain or shine -- so be prepared for weather and some fun.)
There will be lots of delicious food for you to enjoy while you and your family enjoy a host of activities in the heart of beautiful Crabapple. Even your leashed pet is welcome to attend!
The footprint of the festival stretches along Crabapple Road from the roundabout at Crabapple and Heritage Walk to the intersection of Birmingham Highway/Broadwell Road. Activities take place elsewhere on the Crabapple Market property as well, including the Green, as well as in the City Hall parking lot.
Vendor (booth and food) and non-profit applications will open at some time in April. (Please check this webpage, as well as the City's social media, for the latest info on that.) Applications generally close in late June or early July. All applications will be reviewed after June 30, and vendors will be notified of their status or or around August 1.
We also invite businesses to showcase their brand by becoming a sponsor of Crabapple Fest -- thus giving them exposure to its tens of thousands of attendees. For information on that process, or if you have any questions generally, contact the City's Community Outreach Manager Emily Salerno at Emily.Salerno@miltonga.gov.
