From savory dishes like hot apple cider donuts to sweet indulgences, such as caramel apples, there's something to satisfy every craving. And, of course, there's an abundance of seasonal pumpkin spice delicacies to please your taste buds.

Of course, no festival is complete without great entertainment, and the Benteen Park Fall Fest does not disappoint. Local musicians and performers take the stage to keep the crowd entertained all day long. From folk and bluegrass to lively kids' shows, there's a genre for everyone. Don't forget to bring your dancing shoes and be ready to groove to the beat!

Families, in particular, will love the Fall Fest. With an array of games, face painting, and even a petting zoo for the little ones, there's no shortage of kid-friendly activities. Parents can relax and watch their children have a blast in a safe and welcoming environment.

You can also find local artists and craftsmen showcasing their talents, offering a wide array of handcrafted goods, from jewelry to home decor. It's the perfect opportunity to get a head start on your holiday shopping!
