The Burning Question: When Does Gilmer, Texas Go Absolutely Yammy?
Ah, the East Texas Yamboree! A time for sweet potato adoration, carnival rides that defy the laws of physics, and mutton bustin' that'll have you snorting laughter (or maybe it's the funnel cake fumes). But before you polish your cowboy boots and stock up on Pepto-Bismol (those fried Oreos are a force to be reckoned with), you gotta know the all-important when.

The East Texas Yamboree is a four-day extravaganza that descends upon Gilmer, Texas, every year. But unlike a rogue tumbleweed, it doesn't just show up whenever the wind blows it there. This spudtacular event has a schedule, and it's a reliable one (unlike that sketchy fortune teller at last year's Yamboree).
Tip: A slow, careful read can save re-reading later.
Here's the key: The Yamboree ???? (tam-i-da, that's Korean for "always") takes place on the third weekend of October.
Wait, There's More! We know, you're practically vibrating with anticipation. To quench your thirst for yammy knowledge, here's a bonus tip: You can usually find the exact dates for the upcoming Yamboree on the official website ([East Texas Yamboree website]) around July or August.
Tip: Every word counts — don’t skip too much.
Pro Tip: Don't wait until the last minute to book your hotel! This celebration draws crowds faster than you can say "yam fritters," so snag your room early for maximum yam-filled fun.
