Classic rock legends The Marshall Tucker Band and Haywood County bluegrass sensation Balsam Range will headline the 116th Canton Labor Day gathering, which will take place Sept. 1-2 at Sorrells Street Park in downtown. 

Other acts to perform include Dirty Grass Soul, Darren Nicholson Band, The Brothers Gillespie, The Super 60s, Outlaw Whiskey and more.

The Canton Labor Day Festival is a celebration of all things made in Western North Carolina. As the oldest festival of its kind in the south, Canton Labor Day honors the blue-collar workers who power our economy with their bare hands and deliver the products and services upon which we all depend.  

Tickets are $15 for a two-day pass or $10 at the gate each day. Kids ages 12 and under are admitted free.

For more information, a full schedule of events and activities or to purchase tickets, go to cantonlaborday.com.
