Mt. Sterling October Court Days

Court Days in Mt. Sterling carries on a Kentucky tradition that has drawn people to Mt. Sterling to buy, sell and trade goods for more than 200 years. The event takes its name from frontier days, when the Circuit Judge came to town once a year to try criminals and people came from miles around to sell crops, trade horses and mules, and swap goods and services. Today the festival features guns, knives, antiques, flea market items and every kind of food imaginable.
