East Hartford Parks and Recreation Invites you to the Annual Fall Festival

East Hartford, CT – It was a rejuvenating summer in the town of East Hartford! To celebrate the upcoming fall season, East Hartford Parks & Recreation would like to invite you to experience their Annual Fall Festival Event. The event will take place on Saturday, October 8th from 11:00am-3:00pm, at the East Hartford Town Green, 1047 Main Street. Fall Fest is one of the Town’s largest events, averaging over 2,000 participants the past few years and there is always loads of fun activities for the entire family to keep you busy celebrating the autumn season all afternoon. Entry to the event is free. However, there is a $5-fee for visitors that provides an unlimited access to attractions, games and a pumpkin decorating activity that participants will get to take home.

The fall fest is the perfect family-friendly, community event that offers fun activities for children and adults alike. The Fall Fest signs will be displayed around town to assist visitors in locating the fun-filled venue.

Among many activities, this year there will be a juggler/unicyclist demonstration, a variety of vendors, food, pumpkin painting, scarecrow decorating, pumpkin bounce house, inflatable corn maze and more. Crafters, vendors and non-profit organizations are welcome to participate in this event.
