About the Festival

Since 1947, the people of Warner have hosted the Warner Fall Foliage Festival to welcome old and new friends to our community. After a two year absence, the Festival is back and the Board is committed to a full Festival as we all remember. With hundreds of local volunteers helping to put the event on and raise money for community organizations, the Festival has donated thousands of dollars to these organizations to support the growth and enrichment of local culture, music, art, sports, town and school projects, parks and facilities. Please join us on Main Street to celebrate the return of the Festival.

Festival Program

Friday, October 6

6- 8PM      Main Street Lodge Open House 
A note from Main Street Warner: ¨We are excited to open up the Mainstreet Lodge to the public. It will be a great chance for the community to see inside, learn about the restoration work begun and hear about plans developing for the future community space. We feel that Friday, locals night, is the right time to launch with an official open house!
