Duluth Fall Festival 2026

Saturday of the Festival kicks off an incredible day of tradition and fun that is Duluth's biggest day of the year. The Festival starts with an old-fashioned, small-town parade with hundreds of cheering spectators lining the route. It's a great way for local organizations to show community involvement.

The race goes throughout the streets of Duluth and ends at the Duluth Festival Center. This race is a qualifier for the Peachtree Road Race. Dunkin Donuts Corporate is one of the sponsors! Receive a swag bag, and a DONUT at the end of the race!

Check out the Duluth Depot in Festival Central. Your one-stop shop for Duluth Fall Festival related souvenirs and a fun raffle.

The Festival Center stage and Parsons Alley stages will have entertainment all weekend long. Come check out the great acts. There is something for everyone.

We can't forget the kiddos. Don't miss Kidz Korner, our inflatables area for our kid size guests.
