The first Mountain State Forest Festival began in Elkins on October 30, 1930. Since then, it has been held every October except for the years 1941 to 1949. The festival was intended to attract tourists to the region, which is known for its hardwood trees and dazzling fall colors. Typical events include performances by the Wheeling Symphony, nationally known country music acts, a fiddle contest, and dances.
