Fall Festival

Table of Contents

Temperatures are starting to cool, football has started, and the state fair is coming! Turn all of this fun into an event for your tenants! Offer concession type food and games. As the season progresses, add cider or apple themed food or pumpkin carving. Contact local artisans to bring out their wares for an art walk or to encourage attendance at an upcoming local festival. Host your own art and holiday fair and let folks get a jump on holiday shopping. Consider pairing with a food donation drive as thoughts turn to colder weather and those in need.

Just the Basics

Here are a few easy suggestions for planning your Fall Festival event to get you started:
  • Set up themed yard games. 
    • Its fall so bring out the cornhole & mini-football toss games! You could even go with traditional favorites like bobbing for apples!
  • Schedule a Food Truck to serve lunch. Consider a tailgate themed truck. If your budget allows, provide free food or discounts. This can be tied to games or other activities, and then you coordinate with the food truck vendor at the end of the day to pay out anything they’ve awarded. If budget doesn’t allow for rewards, the tenants will still appreciate being able to buy their own lunch while having fun on-site.   
    • We can help you determine a budget based on activities at your other events if needed. Most trucks will work on a maximum so you can give them your budget number and they’ll stop serving free food once that’s reached.   
    • Food Truck Discount Examples: Most food trucks will work with you to create a package to meet your budget. Ideas for how you might incorporate free tenant food include giving the first 20 people in costume free lunch, paying for the first $500 spent at the truck, or paying for an appetizer for anyone in costume up to $250.
