Mars Applefest

Mark your calendars, Mars Applefest is always held the first Saturday in October.

Applefest hosts over 150 vendors selling everything from fine jewelry, quality arts and crafts, paintings, quaint decorations and trinkets, and nearby grown foods from local farms.

Come hungry and dine from the many food vendors with seating under the Mars Town Square tent. Enjoy music with your family and friends as you try homemade bread and pastries, funnel cakes, kettle corn, corn dogs, international flavors and the like.

Visitors to Mars Applefest have the opportunity for an awesome photo with the town’s very own flying saucer! This little piece of Americana is much beloved and a popular spot of the festivities. Folks from across the nation make the trek to visit, to sit on the spaceship and say they have been to Mars. You can count on plenty of Martians around to help you celebrate.

Admission is free. Parking is free. A shuttle is provided from the overflow lot.

Donations that are raised are spread generously throughout our community and across the world.
