for this weekend - CANCELLATION
(Darn! It’s such a fun event. We do hope Chalktoberfest can be rescheduled 😬)

This is not the announcement we wanted to make. 💔
Due to the severe weather forecast for this weekend, we have made the difficult decision to cancel Chalktoberfest 2026, including the Craft B**r Festival and Community Chalk Competition, scheduled for October 10–11.

In the history of Chalktoberfest, we have never faced a weather forecast severe enough to require this decision. With the potential for flooding rains, high winds, and dangerous conditions, the safety of our artists, guests, volunteers, vendors, and staff must come first.

We know how disappointing this is. More than 80 artists from across the country and around the world have spent months preparing. Our volunteers, sponsors, partners, vendors, and community have worked tirelessly to make this weekend possible, and thousands of you were preparing to join us on Marietta Square. We are heartbroken that we won’t get to experience it together this year.

We will be reaching out directly to affected participants and ticket holders with additional information. Please continue to follow our social channels and website for updates.
To every artist, volunteer, sponsor, partner, vendor, and member of our community who helped bring Chalktoberfest this far: thank you.

We hope you’ll join us when the chalk returns in 2027. ❤️🎨
