Columbia and Montour Counties' covered bridges are the reason for this four day autumn festival at the Bloomsburg Fairgrounds, where hundreds of craft vendors and food stands set up alongside self guided driving tours of the historic bridges. The Columbia-Montour Visitors Bureau has run the festival since the 1980s, and 2026 marks its 44th year. Fall foliage timing makes the driving tour a regional draw on its own.
