Appomattox Events

Fun For the Whole Family

Something for Everyone!

Many are drawn to Appomattox for its rich history and stay for its warmth and hospitality. A great way to get to know the town is to attend local events in Appomattox. History buffs will find re-enactments and special events at the National Historic Site throughout the year but especially in April, when the Civil War ended. Families love the three-day annual fall Appomattox Railroad Festival with its carnival rides, parade, arts and crafts fair, and food trucks filled with tempting treats. But in between the big events, you’ll find seasonal celebrations, art and craft fairs, farmer’s markets and other fun, local events. View the event calendar  below for more information.
