Festival Special Event
Cherokee Fairgrounds Festival Rainbow & Ramps Festival

Nothing symbolizes spring in Cherokee quite like two local delicacies: rainbow trout and ramps. At the annual Rainbow and Ramps Festival on March 26th you can try a plate topped with both, plus other seasonal veggies, for only $10 per meal, for a true “taste of Cherokee.” As a community event, the Rainbow and Ramps festival honors the elders in Cherokee, with family and friends gathering to eat, play games, and enjoy entertainment. It’s estimated that around 700 meals will be served. This year, the cultural ambassadors known as the Warriors of AniKituhwa will perform traditional Cherokee dances.
