The Western North Carolina Bigfoot Festival is just around the corner, taking place on May 18th in Marion, North Carolina. This festival, also known as the "Marian Bigfoot Festival," has been a popular event for Bigfoot enthusiasts for several years, drawing crowds of people looking to learn more about the mysterious creature. In a recent episode of the CreepGeeks podcast, the hosts discussed the upcoming festival and shared some important information for those planning to attend. The festival is free and open to the public, and there will be a variety of vendors, speakers, and activities for attendees to enjoy. The festival will feature a Bigfoot calling contest, talks from experts in the field, and an author section where you can meet and talk to some of the biggest names in the Bigfoot community. One thing to note is that parking in downtown Marion will be limited due to the large number of vendors and attendees. However, there will be free shuttle buses available from several locations, including McDowell High School, McDowell Technical Community College, Marion City Square shopping center, and the Core Opening Memorial YMCA. These shuttles will make it easy for attendees to get to and from the festival without having to worry about finding parking. The CreepGeeks podcast hosts also mentioned that there have been some false posts circulating on the internet claiming that people are being charged to attend the festival. However, the festival is free and open to the public, and there is no cost for the shuttle buses. If you're planning to attend the Western North Carolina Bigfoot Festival, be sure to check out the CreepGeeks podcast episode for more information on what to expect. And if you're unable to attend, don't worry - the festival will be back again next year, and there are sure to be plenty of other Bigfoot-related events and sightings to keep you entertained in the meantime. I'm always excited to hear about events and sightings related to this mysterious creature. The Western North Carolina Bigfoot Festival is a great opportunity to learn more about Bigfoot and connect with other enthusiasts. I'm looking forward to attending the festival and hope to see many of you there!
