The 2024 Tehachapi Apple Festival is two days of “Applie Goodness" and is featuring tons of new apple related items and food. The festival is fun for everyone in the family including a great “Kidzone," with inflatables. For $10 you can get a bracelet for all day fun. Other fun kid related activities include balloon car races, carnival games, corn hole contest, golf putting, face painting, and the carnival will be in town as well. This year we are featuring an amazing Street Maze for kids to be challenged and an Aerial Silk Show.
Shoppers will love the hand crafted local artisan gifts and apple related items. Local apple farmers will be selling apples and lots of other locally produced food products including apple pie, apple turnovers, apple nachos, and many other apple treats. We have clothing, candles, home decor, baked goodies, kids toys, crocs, jewelry, candles, wreaths and so much more.
Live music can be enjoyed all day long in Centennial Plaza where you can sit and enjoy your food and the music. Just outside of Centennial Plaza in the middle of Green Street you can cheer on the contestants in the Apple Pie Eating Contest on Saturday OR ENTER or watch the apple pie baking contest on Sunday.
