Annual Strawberry Festival Returns to Elmwood Park

May 2, 2024

Do you love strawberries? I could eat them all day, on a hot day I love to pop a baggy in the freezer in the morning and snack on later. The 44th annual Strawberry Festival is coming to Elmwood Park on May 3 - May 4th. You can learn more information here https://www.strawberryfestivalroanoke.org/

Festival Hours: Friday, May 3 from 11 AM - 6 PM and Saturday, May 4 from 10 AM - 4 PM, RAIN OR SHINE.

This is a FREE two-day, family friendly event celebrating the strawberry and signaling the beginning of festival season in the Roanoke Valley! Entering its 44th year as a fundraising event for Community School, the festival draws attendees from across the Blue Ridge who stop by each year to get their annual Strawberry Shortcake fix. Enjoy artisan vendors, musical entertainment and so much more.
