The 20th annual Perkasie Fall Festival is scheduled for 12pm-4pm on Sunday October 4th.
Join us for an afternoon of fun at Perkasie’s annual Fall Fest. Our theme this year is Sweet Treats. Think candy apples, candy corn, apple pie, donuts, cider and all kinds of Fall-flavored sweetness. Entertainment, acrobats, music, food trucks, huge vendor fair, pumpkin decorating, scarecrow making, mini golf, games, petting zoo, pony rides, face painting, crafts, tractor rides, and much much more. The best part is almost everything is FREE OF CHARGE for visiting families.
The event takes place at Menlo Park and in the town center with free buses running between for those who do not wish to walk. It’s about 1/4 mile.
