Celebrate 100 years of the magical MoonPie! The Chattanooga Bakery will celebrate its 100th birthday of its Southern icon this year, and they want you to make a BIG DEAL out of it at this year’s Bell Buckle RC-MoonPie Festival to be held on Saturday, June 17th!
Known as the first “fast food” meal, these two Southern traditions, RC and a MoonPie, are brought together for a grand celebration Bell Buckle style. The idea for the Festival first began as a way to celebrate the MoonPie and to bring tourists to Bell Buckle. Bell Buckle called the Chattanooga Bakery to see about throwing a party for MoonPie. Little could anyone have expected what a huge event this would become!
The day will get started as the sun rises above the historic century and a half old town with a run of 10 miles through the scenic countryside.
There will be 75 arts and crafts booths and entertainment. The day will wrap-up with the cutting of the World’s Largest MoonPie.
