Uniquely Union Festival

The Uniquely Union Festival is proudly in its 19th year of serving the community and opening our city to guests from near and far. After many years as a BBQ cook off contest the Uniquely Union Festival Board felt it was time to expand its reach. In 2013 the festival saw many changes. Some of those changes included a venue change, a rebranding (so that the face of our festival would reflect our intent), another change was to expand and diversify. It is our desire that all members of your family can come and find something that appeals to them. Dad can come out and participate in the Taster’s Choice portion of the BBQ Cook Off while Mom shops at the unique specialty shops that line our historic Main Street or one of the merchandise crafters that are on "Specialty Row". The kids will have plenty to do in their own area designated especially for them in the "Kidz Zone", where the mechanical rides are free and the entertainment is kid friendly.

Are you a music lover? What kind of music do you like? You’re in luck!!  The festival board is committed to serving up all genres. You will find four stages at Uniquely Union spread across our beautiful downtown area. You can enjoy the headlining concerts that take place on the Main Stage. The Acoustic Stage features an array of americana, folk, country and a some classic rock. The Gospel Stage hosts local talents and choirs, while the stage in "Kidz Zone" is dedicated to today’s hits.

Are you a history buff or maybe an art connoisseur? Well, we have just the thing for you. You can take advantage of our award winning local museum that provides free guided tours or our fantastic local Union County Arts Council that displays and sells unique local artists' wares. And new to the festival for 2014, for just $5 you can take advantage of our historical carriage rides presented by our local production company, Boogaloo. This is sure to be a hit!

It all sounds pretty great doesn’t it? Are you wondering how much it will cost you? Uniquely Union has set ourselves apart by making it a priority to keep this festival as free as possible. You will not pay an admission fee to attend Uniquely Union, you will not pay for your kids to ride the mechanical rides, and you will not pay to see any of the concerts that we to bring to any stage.If you are interested in participating in the Uniquely Union Festival as a sponsor, food vendor, crafter, or cook-off contestant see the forms section for all information.
