The 35th Anniversary of the 127 Yard Sale
This exciting annual event is also known as the 127 Yard Sale—and this year marks its 35th.
If you think we mean “longest” because of the number of days, think again! The World’s Longest Yard Sale is actually 690 miles long.
In fact, it stretches across six states and has more than 2,200 vendors as of now! For those of us in Alabama, the yard sale starts at Noccalula Falls Park in Gadsden.
Currently, there are 25 participating vendors at the Gadsden stop. And that is just the beginning of your treasure hunt!
Shop your way through Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio and Michigan. The final stop for those traveling north for the World’s Longest Yard Sale is Addison, Michigan.
Most of the route follows Highway 127. However, the route changes in our neck of the woods.
