ℹ️ About This Event

The Nappanee Apple Festival is one of Indiana's larger and better-known fall community celebrations, combining three stages of entertainment, more than 150 exhibitors, carnival rides, contests, parade activity, and apple-themed food over a long weekend in downtown Nappanee. It is a strong qMeet inclusion because it is broad, family-friendly, and explicitly positioned as one of the state's largest festivals.

Cost
General festival access is broadly public; rides, food, and purchases from exhibitors are extra.
What to Wear
Comfortable early-fall clothing and walking shoes for a downtown festival with long hours.
What to Bring
Comfortable walking shoes, cash/card for food and vendors, and a bag if you expect to shop or take home baked goods.
Predicted Attendance80,000 total (25,000 peak day)

Want to Create Your Own Meetup for this Event?

This event is a listing — the concert, festival or activity itself. A meetup is your own smaller plan to go to it with other people: your date, your time, your meeting place. “A few of us are going, come with us.”

You don’t need permission and you don’t take anything over — this event isn’t changed at all. The venue, address and details are copied across, so you only pick when and where to meet.

As its organizer you get real tools to plan the when, where & what:

  • 📅 Member Availability — see which days and times everyone says they're usually free, so you know when to hold it.
  • 🎯 Member Interests & Cities — see everyone's interests and locations, so you know where to meet and what to include.
  • 🗺 Member Map — visually shows where most members are concentrated.
  • 🏷️ Activities & Voting — lists the tags and lets members vote on what they want to do.
  • 💬 Event Chat — everyone can discuss plans, who's bringing what, and last-minute changes.
  • RSVPs — who's coming, how likely, guest counts, and what they're looking forward to.
  • 🔗 Many Ways to Share or Invite — get the word out and grow attendance.

Your meetup starts hidden and set to “Only My Contacts”, with no date, so nothing is announced until you're ready. Nobody is notified when you create it. Once you set a date and switch Go Live? to Yes, it appears for people who marked themselves interested in this event.
