Fayetteville Springfest began in 1983 by merchants on Dickson Street as a way to celebrate the history, culture, and flavor of Fayetteville. The festival quickly became a late-April staple each year featuring a pancake breakfast, lots of live music, kid-friendly activities, arts and crafts vendors and the annual “bed races” where teams of participants put together their own racing beds and wheel them up Dickson Street. After a year off last year, Springfest is back, and we think the festival will be better than ever in 2013. This year, mark your calendars for Saturday, April 19, 2014. We hope to see you on Dickson Street!
