What the Free?! – September Edition
Fall is just around the corner! How do you celebrate the season? Some prefer decorating while others might enjoy their pumpkin flavored everything. I personally love when the weather cools down a bit making outdoor events so much more enjoyable. Check out some of the free events coming up this month below!
Though this festival has an admission fee, children under 3 are free! Enjoy te Feed Trough Concessions, Nana's Bake Shop and Country Store, Pre-Picked Pumpkin Patch, and Jersey’s Creamery Homemade Ice Cream on weekends from October 7 through November 6.
This Haile festival on October 4 will have entertainment including live music from 6 bands, 3 bounce houses, face painting, and a special performance by the Cameron Dancenter. There will also be lots of food trucks along with the Haile Village Center's restaurants.
Grab the whole family and visit the quaint, town of Micanopy where autumn comes alive. Stroll through booths set up by local vendors, listen to live music and participate in an antique auction.
On November 19 and 20, celebrate art and culture! The 41st Annual Downtown Festival & Art Show will transform the streets of historic downtown Gainesville into a celebration of art and creativity complete with 200+ artists, live music, performing arts, and a spectacular array of food.
Stop by Marion County Parks & Recreation's 4th Annual Carnival! Join us for an evening of fall fun with games, candy, music, food trucks, giveaways and much much more!
