MAYBERRY DAYS IS HAPPENING THIS WEEK IN MOUNT AIRY, NORTH CAROLINA, WITH THE BIG PARADE STILL TO COME!

For fans of The Andy Griffith Show, Mount Airy is feeling a whole lot like Mayberry this week. Mayberry Days continues through Sunday, September 27, bringing classic TV nostalgia, special guests and small-town fun to Andy Griffith’s hometown.

There is still plenty happening before the celebration wraps up. Visitors can enjoy autograph sessions, live entertainment, Mayberry trivia, music, contests and appearances by familiar tribute characters.

One of the biggest events arrives Saturday morning with the Mayberry Days Parade. Downtown fills with special guests, costumed characters, classic vehicles and groups making their way through the streets while crowds gather along the route.

While you are in town, you can also explore places connected to Andy Griffith and Mount Airy’s television history, including the Andy Griffith Museum, Andy Griffith Playhouse and Historic Earle Theatre.

Mayberry Days has quite a history of its own. The celebration began in 1990 as a one-day event honoring the 30th anniversary of The Andy Griffith Show and eventually grew into the multi-day tradition visitors know today.

Sunday brings the festival to a close with the Mayberry Days Chapel service and more entertainment.
