Named after moonshiner Amos Owens' corn whiskey-based "Cherry Bounce" moonshine, the Cherry Bounce Festival features art from local and regional artists, live bluegrass/Americana music, moonshine and cherry-inspired items by local restaurants and businesses. The FREE festival kicks off on Friday night with a concert at 7:30PM (gates open at 6:30PM) and continues on Saturday from 10AM-6PM with art vendors, live music, moonshine, food trucks, and special discounts/promotions from Main Street Merchants. The Cherry Bounce Festival is held at the Forest City Pavilion on Park Square (POPS) and along historic Main Street, Forest City.
