Celebrating our 15th year in 2024, the National Banana Pudding Festival celebrates the ultimate Southern Treat: Banana Pudding. Guests will enjoy two fun-filled days (October 5, 9am-6pm and October 6, Noon-5pm, 2024) of entertainment on two stages, arts, crafts, food, games, activities for kids of ALL ages, and -- of course -- Banana Pudding. The nation’s Banana Pudding Champion is selected at the live cook-off Saturday morning followed by an auction of competing cook-off puddings. Stroll through the “Puddin’ Path” and taste up to ten different banana puddings made by local non-profit organizations. This award-winning festival has received the SFEA Best Festival Award and been named a Southeast Tourism Society Top 20 Event. Proceeds benefit local non-profits.

Parking instructions

To get into the festival grounds without getting caught in traffic, we will have a road closed off to the public but available to volunteers who can show their parking pass. Once onsite, there is a specific parking area for volunteers. The volunteer checkin tent is in that area, which is a short walk to the main festival grounds.
