Join us at CCOC's 2021 Clayton Harvest Festival brought to you by Food Lion! The Clayton Chamber of Commerce’s Clayton Harvest Festival has roots dating back to 1951 when the Clayton Merchant's Association (now CCOC) hosted Clayton's first festival, the Cotton Festival. With over 31,000 in attendance, today's five-day festival incorporates a midway full of carnival rides, car show, Latin American Festival, Squealin' on the Square, and other community-focused events, vendors, food, music, and fun.
We look forward to having you visit the Clayton Harvest Festival this year! As a reminder for all that plan to attend, you are personally responsible to take any and all precautions set forth by the CDC, Health Officials and state guidelines in order to protect yourselves while attending, volunteering, vending, or performing on the premises/footprint of the Clayton Chamber of Commerce's Harvest Festival. By attending the Clayton Harvest Festival, you recognize that you will be exposed to the public and that there is no way that the Clayton Chamber of Commerce can completely control the experience you will have by being present at the Clayton Harvest Festival on any given day or time.
