Join in at the 42nd annual Salamanca-Seneca Falling Leaves Festival with events happening all weekend long!  Experience Seneca Culture and Heritage and enjoy the beautiful fall foliage.  Started as a way to promote the culture of the Seneca Nation of Indians, as well as the relationship between the nation and the City of Salamanca, the celebration will have a cultural aspect with demonstrations of Seneca arts, food and entertainment.

Admission to the Festival is Free!  And there will be free carnival rides, and other family friendly activities like bounce houses, a petting zoo, face painting, a dunk tank, and balloon animals.  Food and craft and art vendors set up all weekend as well.
