It is almost time to register for the 2026 Woodstock Scarecrow Invasion!!!

Registration for the 2026 Woodstock Scarecrow Invasion will begin on Tuesday, September 1st, at 10am in the Woodstock Visitors Center located at 8588 Main Street. As one of the city’s most popular events of the year, the Scarecrow Invasion promises to continue to bring joy to the community with festive, unique displays.

For more information on the 2026 Woodstock Scarecrow Invasion including rules and a map of scarecrow locations, please go to visitwoodstockga.com/scarecrow

Local businesses, non-profits, and individuals are all welcome to register for this event. Participants are required to register for the event in person, beginning on Tuesday, September 1st, and running through the month of September if spaces remain available. It is important to note that a line forms along Main Street hours before the Visitors Center opens for scarecrow registration each year, so registrants will want to arrive early to reserve a prime spot for their displays. Spaces in the event are limited and most if not all of them are expected to be reserved by close of business (5pm) on September 1st

This year's registration fee is $100 for businesses and $50 for non-profits and individuals. The scarecrows will be on display throughout the month of October, during which the public votes for their favorite scarecrow designs. Voting takes place at the Visitors Center, which is open Monday to Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Sunday Noon-5pm. The votes are $1 each. Businesses with scarecrow displays may accept votes in their place of business as well. The winners receive bragging rights and an awesome trophy.

The proceeds from the Scarecrow Invasion benefit INSeason, the design committee for IN WDSTK that imagines and implements design initiatives for the Downtown Woodstock area. The money raised from this event will help enhance the beautification of Downtown Woodstock, including seasonal landscaping and holiday decor along Main Street.
Installation of scarecrow displays will take place between Monday, September 28th and Friday, October 2nd, and will all be removed by Sunday, November 3rd

As we get ready to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Woodstock Visitors Center we are looking back at the Visitors Center's history and we had to highlight the Dean's Store Sessions, a music video series that was recorded at the Woodstock Visitors Center.

Hey friends! Last week we shared a bit of the history behind the Woodstock Visitors Center, and today we’d like to share a bit more about what the center has become over the past 25 years...

Since opening, the Woodstock Visitors Center has welcomed more than 250,000 visitors from all 50 states and more than 100 countries. Attendance has grown dramatically, from 5600 visitors in 2007, to 19,000 visitors recorded in 2025.

Today, visitors stepping through the doors of the former Dean’s Store encounter both Woodstock’s past and its future — historic artifacts alongside maps, event guides, city brand apparel, and the friendly faces that continue a tradition of hospitality more than a century in the making.

We hope you will join us in celebrating the 25th anniversary celebration this Wednesday, August 26, with a reception starting at 3pm and a ribbon cutting at 4pm. The event will take place at the center itself at 8588 Main Street in the heart of Downtown Woodstock.

We are excited to celebrate the people and stories that have made the Woodstock Visitors Center such a lasting symbol of welcome.
