The Blue Plum Festival is a cherished Carter County tradition celebrating arts, music, and community along the tree-lined streets of downtown Elizabethton. Named for the blue plum trees that once lined the downtown streets, the festival features juried craft vendors, multiple live music stages, local food producers, and family entertainment. The historic downtown setting — including the famous covered bridge — creates a picturesque backdrop. A genuine community festival that has grown steadily in regional recognition.
