Fall Festivals in Chester County, PA


Summer might be winding down, but there are plenty of exciting events to look forward to when it comes to fall in Chester County. From cultural festivals to craft fairs, there’s something fun going on just about every weekend in September, October and November.

These festivals are a part of what makes our area a wonderful place to live, work and play. Check out the following events taking place in the coming months:

September
Kick off your fall season by attending one of Chester County’s exciting September festivals. On the weekend of September 8, you can enjoy a wide array of beautiful craftwork at the Log House Arts and Crafts Show in Kerr Park, or take part in a one-of-a-kind experience at the Mushroom Festival in Kennett Square.

The weekend of September 15 holds delicious surprises, including the Foodtastic Food Truck Tasting Festival in Wagontown, as well as the Restaurant Festival in the heart of downtown Westchester. For another weekend of fun, you can take a short trip to Unionville for the Horse Trials and Fair, or to Exton to celebrate Women’s Wellness Day during the weekend of the 22nd.

The last weekend in September, enjoy Downingtown’s FallFest or Malvern’s Fall Festival and Bark in the Park with your best furry friend. All of this fall fun will make saying goodbye to summer much easier than you thought possible!

October
The fall events in Chester County only get better as the months go by. October festivities begin with the Harvest Festival in Glen Mills and the East Whiteland Fire Co. Car Show in Malvern. If you’re looking for a little class, the weekend of October 13 brings with it the Chester Valley Bridal Showcase, as well as the Newtown Square Art Show.

For some crafting and artistic fun, check out the Weekend Scrapbooking Escape in Malvern or the Fine Arts and Crafts Festival in Westchester during the weekend of October 20. Finally, prepare for some Halloween fun at the Golden Knights Original Art and Handmade Craft Show in Westchester. Nothing says fall like autumn food and crafts.

November
Fall may be coming to an end by the time November hits, but the fun just keeps on coming in Chester County during this time. Begin your November by attending the Grace Assembly Preschool’s annual craft show on the 3rd. For more crafting fun, you can check out the Fall Craft and Gift Show at the Applecross Country Club.

The weekend of November 17 will help you prepare for the holidays and cold winter months with the Holiday Shopping Boutique and Craft Fair in Downingtown, and you can wrap up your fall by visiting the Holiday Craft and Gift show in Malvern and the OLC Christmas Craft Fair Bazaar in Parkesburg. With all of the exciting events Chester County has to offer, you won’t be missing summer for a moment!

As we all know, Chester County is a wonderful place to call home. Local residents enjoy this wide range of fall events each year, which fosters that sense of community we all experience in our area.
