Bradford Era – Fabulous weather, a beautiful location and a lengthy list of vendors and activities is a recipe for large crowds, organizers of the 2019 Kinzua Bridge Fall Festival have found.

In fact, roughly 16,000 visitors attended the festival on Saturday and Sunday, said Mary Ann Burggraf, executive director of the Kinzua Bridge Foundation Inc.

At least 9,000 people — more than the population of Bradford City — came out Saturday to enjoy the festivities. On Sunday, 6,000 to 7,000 visitors came out.

This was “extremely astounding,” said Burggraf. “The magnitude of the crowds was unbelievable.”

She noted there was “something for everyone” to enjoy.
