ARDMORE, Tenn. – The sights of colorful crape myrtles, sounds of music and smell of good food will fill the air Saturday in Ardmore for the 31st annual Crape Myrtle Festival.

The festival, presented by Bean & Co Boutique, will take place at John Barnes Park from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

The Greater Ardmore Chamber of Commerce will be selling a variety of colors of crape myrtles.

“This will be one of the largest festivals the chamber has ever hosted,” said Chamber Director Yolandia Eubanks. “We encourage everyone to come out and support the town and city of Ardmore and the Chamber.”

There will be specialty vendors, direct sales vendors, hospitality tents, food vendors and food trucks, and informational booths. There will also be an ATM on-site.

The Houston Ridge Bluegrass Band will perform at 10:30 a.m. and Juice party band from Huntsville hits the stage at 2 p.m. While visitors will be on their feet dancin’, lawn chairs are recommended.
