🥇 Gold Rush Days: The Weekend Dahlonega REALLY Comes Alive!
If you've ever been to Dahlonega during Gold Rush Days, you know exactly what I mean when I say our little town completely transforms!
Every October, thousands of people head to the historic square for a weekend filled with arts and crafts, food, music, a parade—and plenty of reminders of the gold-mining history that put Dahlonega on the map.
Living here, I get to enjoy Dahlonega when the square is quiet and peaceful...but I have to admit, there's something pretty special about seeing the streets filled with people enjoying the town I call home. ❤️
Gold Rush is scheduled this year for October 17–18 this year, and here's my local advice:
Come early.
Wear comfortable shoes.
Be patient in finding a parking space
AND... most of all, just enjoy yourself in one of the most popular small towns in Georgia!!
If you've been thinking about visiting North Georgia this fall, this is one weekend when you'll definitely see a different side of Dahlonega.
And who knows...
You may come for Gold Rush Days and leave wondering what it's like to live here.
If that happens, CALL or text me and let me know what questions you have about living in Dahlonega, my hometown.🏡🍂
