Hey Day
Grand Opening Celebration
Back in August 1958, the Canton Cotton Mill hosted its first Denim Days Festival right in the heart of Canton. The festival was a huge success, attracting hundreds of visitors with food, games, and entertainment celebrating Cherokee County's most famous product of that time - Indigo blue denim.
Our grand opening event aims to capture this piece of history and to pay homage to the old days. On November 5th, from 11:00am - 3:00pm, the Cherokee County History Center will be providing food, entertainment, and activities for all guests who visit the history center! This includes:
- Carnival-themed games and prizes
- Popcorn and cotton candy
- Face painting
- Balloon animals
- An archaeological dig site
- Music by Speedy Productions
And more!
All activities outside will be free for all visitors!
Admission into the history center will not be complimentary for Hey Day. The History Center will be open that Saturday from 10:00am - 5:00pm. Please visit our home page for more information on ticket pricing.
General admission is sponsored by the City of Canton. The first 200 guests visiting the History Center will be guaranteed to enter for free.
Doors open at 10am, so be sure to arrive a little early!
