A full day of music, food & fall fun on the square.

Mark your calendars — the Canton Main Street Autumn Festival is back for its 25th year! Join us downtown for a full day celebrating the best of the season with the whole community.

Live music, delicious food vendors, our beloved scarecrow decorating contest, kids' activities, and plenty of fall cheer to go around. It's one of our favorite ways to support downtown revitalization and experience the heart of Canton's community spirit.
