9:00am - 5:00pm (Rain or Shine!)
The Festival is now under New Management!
After many years of volunteering with the Wilderness Trail Festival, The Kiwanis Club of Christiansburg is proud to announce that we are the new hosting organization for this Annual Arts and Craft Festival. All profits generated will be used to support Kiwanis local youth programs.
The 36th Annual Kiwanis Wilderness Trail Festival will take place in Downtown Christiansburg, exit 114 off of I-81.
Nearly 150 vendors will have booths set up to sell handmade arts and crafts, everything from jewelry to fine art to fun home decorations. Food vendors will be preparing and cooking fresh foods which include gyros, cotton candy, funnel cake, hamburgers, hot dogs, sno-cones, ice cream and so much more.
The Blue Ridge Model A's will participate in the festival with a Car Cruise-in which will be in the parking lot of the Christiansburg Presbyterian Church. The stage will become home to many local performance groups, who will perform to the crowds all day long.
Fun and Entertainment for the Whole Family! We'll See You There!
About the Kiwanis Club of Christiansburg
What is Kiwanis?
Kiwanis is a global organization of volunteers dedicated to changing the world, one child and one community at a time.
This year, the Kiwanis Club of Christiansburg celebrates 60 years of service to our local community. This includes development of Kiwanis Park and starting a recreation program for Christiansburg. Over the years, Kiwanis raised funds and provided labor support to many youth organizations including: Boy Scouts, Red Cross, school safety patrol, Girls and Boys State, sand lot programs, Christmas celebrations for local children in need and recently initiating and supporting the Head Start back pack program. The main focus of our club is to support youth activities in our community.
