CLIFTON FORGE, Va. (VR) – Every October, the Alleghany Highlands come alive with vibrant color, crisp mountain air, and the unmistakable buzz of celebration as the Clifton Forge Fall Foliage Festival makes its return.

Live music fills the air throughout the weekend, offering something for every musical taste—from gospel, country, and bluegrass to classic rock and student performances by local schools.

The festival officially kicks off on Friday, October 17th at noon with a Grand Opening ceremony at the Masonic Amphitheater, marking the start of a weekend filled with fun, flavor, and foliage.

Don’t miss the FREE Gospel Sing on Saturday evening, October 18th at 7:00 p.m., hosted at the historic Clifton Forge Masonic Theater—a beautiful venue rich with local history and character.
