The Chattanooga Strawberry Festival in Tennessee is just around the bend...taking place over the weekend of May 8th-9th as one of the Chattanooga area’s best spring events! Held at Camp Jordan Park, this indoor and outdoor festival is packed with things to see and do. You can grab fresh, locally grown strawberries from MB’s Produce & Farms, then dig into strawberry shortcake, strawberry funnel cakes, and other sweet treats from food trucks. Walk through 150+ vendors, check out the car show, and enjoy free trackless train rides. Kids can spend time at the petting zoo, inflatables, and animal encounters, while live chainsaw carvings by Charlie the Chainsaw Bunny keep crowds watching. Don’t miss Twiggy the waterskiing squirrel or the strawberry funnel cake eating contest for adults. The event runs Friday 2–7 PM and Saturday 10 AM–6 PM, rain or shine! If you're looking for a good time in TN in early May...make plans to be here!
