Cranberry Festival
Join Us in Bandon for One of the Longest Running Festivals on the Oregon Coast!
In 2024, Bandon will celebrate the 78th Annual Bandon Cranberry Festival. The festival is held each year to recognize local cranberry farming through education, entertainment and fun for all ages. The Rogue Credit Union Cranberry Festival is a lively introduction to our community, as well as a time-honored tradition for residents.
Boasting 78 years of family fun with a parade, festival market, evening street dance and more. You’ll enjoy live music and performing arts, classic cars and farm equipment, sports and tournaments, art exhibits and craft markets, shopping and dining, and above all, the bitterly-sweet, locally-famous cranberry-eating contest. Pre-festival activities begin on Thursday evening with the Cranberry Queen coronation. Local events continue Friday morning with the Cranberry Kitchen contest and run throughout the day with local high-school volleyball and football games. The main public festival will be held September 14-15, 2024. The annual Cranberry Parade kicks off the main festivities on Saturday morning. Visit our Cranberry Festival Events page for a full sampling of events from past years.
