On April 26, 2025, 10 am to 6 pm, the 8th annual Blue Ridge Trout & Outdoor Adventures Festival returns to Blue Ridge, Georgia, and Fannin County – the Official Trout Capital of Georgia.
Fishermen, river sports enthusiasts and outdoor recreation fans and their families gather at Blue Ridge’s downtown city park for recreational services, fun, food, activities, entertainment and shopping, while increasing the public’s knowledge of trout and cold-water conservation associated with Trout Unlimited. Net proceeds of Trout Fest ‘25 support cold-water conservation, education, recreation and community awareness and outreach programs funded (in part) by Blue Ridge Mountain Trout Unlimited #696.
