Burton Cotton Gin Festival

About

Held each April in Burton, the Burton Cotton Gin Festival features arts & crafts vendors and a food court, alongside folklife demonstrations and the 1914 Burton Farmers Gin in action—the oldest operating cotton gin in America. A parade kicks off the day, and antique tractors, engines, and classic cars are on display. Craft and food vendors apply to participate. Free admission draws strong local foot traffic.
