    Franklin's 27th annual Main Street Festival brings more than 200 artisans and crafters, two food courts, three stages, and two carnivals to the historic Public Square and Downtown District.  Presented by First Tennessee and produced by the Heritage Foundation of Franklin and Williamson County and the Downtown Franklin Association, the weekend event is expected to attract more than 100,000 visitors to a full slate of family-oriented activities, non-stop musical entertainment and international flavors of more than 20 food vendors.

    Handmade work to be exhibited includes original oil and watercolor paintings, pottery, jewelry, furniture, woodworking, ornamental iron, stained glass, photography, home and garden accents, birdhouses, leatherwork, and much more. In addition to a juried arts and crafts show, the festival offers a special area of children's activities on Third Avenue South between City Hall and the Old Courthouse. Free entertainment is offered continuously on three stages - the First Tennessee Stage on the Public Square, the Heritage Stage on Fourth Avenue North and the Beer/Wine Garden Stage on Fourth Avenue South. Enjoy performances by The Chill Band, Brian Ashley Jones, Ben Graves, Cissy Crutcher, Crazy Face - The Music of Van Morrison, and more. Click here for the complete schedule.

    There will also be a full-scale, traditional carnival at Margin Street and Second Avenue North--the site of the future City of Franklin Bicentennial Park. The carnival opens earlier than the festival on Thursday and goes through Sunday.
