About Gordonsville Fried Chicken Festival
Gordonsville Fried Chicken Festival is held annually at the Fire Company Fair Grounds located along Baker Street. Gordonsville is famous for its fried chicken and the town has earned the nickname “chicken-leg center of the universe”. Back in the late 19th century and early 20th century, local women served platters of fried chicken along with pies and coffee, to passengers of trains stopping in town. The annual festival celebrates this unique tradition and Gordonsville’s heritage.
Gordonsville Fried Chicken Festival is a family-friendly and fun-filled event featuring many attractions – such as contests, art & craft vendors, cook-offs, tasty fried chicken, and much more. In 2024, the Gordonsville Fried Chicken Festival will take place on Saturday, October 5.
