The Town of Candor is pleased to announce the Annual North Carolina Peach Festival that is held on the third Saturday in July every year.

In conjunction with the Festival is our Annual Peachy Feet 5K which is held the Friday before the Peach Festival. The North Carolina Peach Festival, which began in 1996, is held annually on the third Saturday in July. We have 6,000+ in attendance with over 200 parade entires, 85+ craft and food vendors, live entertainment featuring the Sand Band and Blue Horizon, helicopter and pony rides, kid's games, and truck loads of peaches from local peach growers. We have expanded our vendor area and entertainment venues so that we have the opportunity to have a little something for everyone. The Festival is proud to promote our local farmers and the agricultural industry in general.
