Dublin Peanut Festival

It’s Salty, Roasted, Plain, Green and Boiled. It’s also the STAR of our show, better known to us as Bladen County’s finest PEANUTS. We celebrate the Peanut the third Saturday of September each year. This years’ date is September 15th, 2012. The Festival is held in Dublin, N.C, also known as the Peanut Capital of the South. It is the home of Houston’s Peanuts, that is known and whose peanuts are shipped world wide.

Our festival kicks off at 10 AM with a Parade. This year we are honored to have leading our parade The Army Ground Forces Band from Fort Bragg, N.C. When the parade ends, a day to be remembered begins.

We will have the Classic Cruisers Car Show, Craft and Food Vendors, Bar-B-Que plate sale, Kiddie and Women’s Tractor Pull, Corn Hole Tournament, Five Thrill Seeker Mechanical Rides, Huge Bounce Houses (Some are two stories high), Golf Car Drunk Driving Simulated Course, The Nationwide Nascar Show Car and Race Car Simulator that is just waiting for a driv- er, Games for the Kids, Our Own Secret Recipe Hot Dogs Sausage Dogs and Steak and Chicken Fajitas. Our Entertainment Line Up is sure to keep you moving all day. It leads off with Friends of Jesus, followed by The Main Event Band, next up Coastline and ending the show will be Blackwater Rhythm and Blues Band.
