Returning to Autumn at Oz: 1970s Childhood to Now – Is It Worth the Visit?

Join me as I return to Autumn at Oz in Banner Elk, NC, for the first time since my childhood in the 1970s! I’m excited to explore what’s changed and what’s stayed the same at this magical festival nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains. In this video, I’ll share a bit of the park’s history, reflect on my nostalgic memories, and give you my honest opinion on whether this unique event is still worth a visit today.
