Suwannee River Catfish Festival
April 11, 2026
You are invited to join us on the Suwannee River Greenway for the annual Suwannee River Catfish Festival! This family-friendly festival offers games, arts & crafts vendors, food vendors, and more. Live music from local and well-known area bands provides a variety of entertainment throughout the day. There will also be raffles and a 50/50. American Legion Post 57 honor guard will do the opening ceremony.
Catfish dinners will be available for $10 per plate and will start being served around 10am. Dinners include catfish, baked beans, coleslaw, and hush puppies. Admission to the festival is free.
Proceeds from the festival are shared by the Gainesville Fisher House and local High School programs. The Fisher House is dedicated to supporting the veterans and their families who stay at the Gainesville Fisher House during a medical crisis, surgery, or end-of-life condition.
Vendor and sponsor forms can be picked up at Town Hall in Branford.
