Brighton Applefest

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Brighton's Applefest was created in 1975 by the merchants of Brighton, Ontario to promote the Brighton area, and the apple-based culture around it. It is now Brighton's largest yearly event, taking place annually during the last week of September.

The festival offers a variety of attractions. Its primary draw is its parade, and a street festival featuring fresh foods and local crafts. Other attractions include hayrides, a classic car show, live music, and a children's amusement park. It is an interesting slice of rural Ontario life.
