 Huntersville Tradition Days…Step Back in Time and Join us for a  Bicentennial Like No Other - Pocahontas County, WV : Pocahontas County, WV

Huntersville Traditions Days is an annual festival held in Huntersville, West Virginia, the original county seat of Pocahontas County. The festival is held the first full weekend in October and celebrates the traditions of our ancestors and the history of Huntersville.

The festival features a variety of activities, including:

The festival is a great opportunity to learn about the history and culture of Huntersville and Pocahontas County. It is also a fun event for the whole family, with activities for all ages.

In addition to the regular activities, Huntersville Traditions Days also features a special event each year. For example, in 2022, the festival celebrated the Pocahontas County Bicentennial with a birthday cake, hunter's feast, and other demonstrations and tours.
