Celebrating our 43rd Annual Fall Country Jamboree, Join us each year on the first weekend of November where Florida History and Folk Culture come ALIVE!
The Annual Fall Country Jamboree is one of the longest running events in Volusia County. This event features examples of pioneer living that included blacksmithing, cane grinding and a boil, spinning, weaving, wood working, and many more historical demonstrations. The Handmade Arts and Crafts show features the original work from crafters and artists from all over. Local businesses and non-profits set up to share their products. The music line up is one that you will have to search far and wide to match. Featuring both well-known established artists as well as the best of the up and coming. Every year we fill all 6 stages and time slots, that’s over 170 performances, and unfortunately have to turn performers away. But that doesn't stop them from just showing up with their instruments and joining in a jam or workshop. With two workshop tents and two jam tents music is abundant! We would like to thank all of the talented teachers who volunteer their time to run these tents. The old time barn dance in the school house is a foot stompin' good time and good clean fun for the whole family. Live callers and bands make it a dance to remember.
