Celebrate the season at Manchester’s Fall Harvest Day on Saturday, October 18 from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM. Join us at Factory Point Green in the heart of downtown Manchester for a FREE, family-friendly event that promises festive fun for all ages — from live music to hands-on crafts and activities! Proudly sponsored by Heritage Family Credit Union and organized by the Manchester Business Association and Town of Manchester you can enjoy a live performance by artist Arthur James, whose soulful sounds will set the perfect fall vibe. Kids and families can dive into a variety of interactive experiences including:
Pumpkin crafting, cornhole games, face painting and more will be hosted by local nonprofits including the Northshire Day School, Manchester Community Library, Maple Street School and MEMS PTO
Free popcorn will be available, thanks to Kimpton Taconic Hotel and delicious treats like ice cream and cookies will be available for purchase from local favorites Wilcox Ice Cream and Bubbles Bakes.
Don’t miss a special appearance by the Manchester Volunteer Fire Department, who will be on-site with a fire truck for kids to explore — always a highlight!
The event will wrap up with a display of entries from the annual Pumpkin Carving Contest, showcasing the creativity of our community and region.
