Cotton Ginning Days Reintroduced as Heritage & Harvest Days this October

After being canceled in 2020, the Parks and Recreation Department and GAMTRA have completed a lot of planning and prep work behind the scenes and will be introducing the Heritage & Harvest Days festival this fall.

The event includes many of the same activities our community have grown to love and appreciate during Cotton Ginning Days over the last three decades and adds to it to provide a fresh new look for our marquee fall festival.

This years festival will be October 8-10, 2021!

Exhibitors from all over the southeast will convene in Dallas, North Carolina on October 8-10, 2021 for the annual 'crank-up' of antique steam and gasoline engines and tractors. In addition to the engine show, many activities are planned including a Kids County Fair, Heritage Arts Area, Handmade Craft vendors and Music. So mark your calendars and plan to join GAMTRA and Gaston County Parks & Recreation Department as we present the 34th Annual Fall Festival Heritage & Harvest Days. As always, the food is good and admission and parking are free.

We look forward to seeing you at this years Heritage & Harvest Days!
