Come a Skeptic Leave a Believer!
For years, Bigfoot 911 has explored the Mountains of Western North Carolina and beyond searching for the elusive Bigfoot. After several close encounters with Sasquatch, the non-profit group was inspired to hold the WNC Bigfoot Festival for believers and non-believers alike in the group’s hometown of Marion, N.C. During previous WNC Bigfoot Festivals, more than 40,000 people have enjoyed Bigfoot activities, educational panels and more. Whether you’re interested in learning more about the mysterious creature, trying food inspired by Sasquatch, or you want to try your hand at the Bigfoot Calling Contest, there’s something for everyone planned during the 2025 WNC Bigfoot Festival.
