Weekend Events in Hoschton
Hoschton is a festival city in miniature: the farmers and art market on the second Saturdays, the spring and fall festivals on the square, and the evening market in late summer. The guide only lists events that are confirmed in its sources.
Whatever you pick, confirm the date and time with the host before you drive, because festival schedules move.
