We look forward to having you visit the Clayton Harvest Festival this year!

Join us at CCOC's 2024 Clayton Harvest Festival brought to you by Food Lion! The Clayton Chamber of Commerce's Clayton Harvest Festival has roots dating back to 1951 when the Clayton Merchant's Association (now CCOC) hosted Clayton's first festival, the Cotton Festival.

With over 30,000 in attendance, today's four-day festival incorporates a midway full of carnival rides, car and motorcycle shows, Latin American Festival and other community-focused events, vendors, food, music, and fun.

The Clayton Chamber of Commerce's Clayton Harvest Festival, brought to you by Food Lion, is open to anyone in the public and is free to attend. Parking is also free. However, ride tickets, games, food, and beverages do cost money, so please plan accordingly if you'd like to participate in all of the fun the festival has to offer!

The Clayton community will be buzzing with excitement. Enjoy thrilling Midway Carnival Rides & Games, delicious food from food trucks, and craft beer. Family Night will bring joy to all with a Kid's Trunk-or-Treat event and a movie night. Get your taste buds ready to indulge in Clayton's Largest Vendor Fair. The Hometown Talent Showcase will feature amazing performances throughout the day.

There is no age limit to attend the Clayton Harvest Festival, but we do ask that any minors attending the festival be accompanied by an adult.

There are height requirements on some of the festival rides.

You must be 21 to drink and you must possess a valid ID to purchase alcohol. This is a zero tolerance event. All local and state laws will be strictly enforced. There will be no tolerance for illegal activities.
