What is Heritage Harbor Days?

Heritage Harbor Days is a 2 day festival in the center of historical downtown Foley Alabama. Each year over 40,000 people gather in Heritage Park and the Foley Train Depot to travel back in time and celebrate the lives of our ancestors. Come join us to eat local cuisine, shop our many fine artists, and enjoy Gulf Coast music and family fun. Each of these influences come together to pay tribute to the rich heritage of Baldwin County and the evolving way of life of those who made this area their home for many centuries past.
