Hope Fest 2026
September 12 @ 10:00 am - 2:00 pm
Held each fall (usually in September), HopeFEST is a free community event in Gastonia that offers community resources, food, and other activities free to the public. Specifically designed to assist community members who are facing challenges related to housing stability. In years past, transportation, meals, a laundry/shower mobile unit, and much more has been offered during this Saturday festival. HealthNet Gaston is proud to be the coordinating sponsor of HopeFEST in partnership with a host of community services providers. Flyer coming soon.
