WHY IT RATES: Those wanting some friendly, family-fun can enjoy music, face-painting, delicious wine, arts and crafts and more at the Fall Festival at Massanutten.-Jessica Zickefoose, TravelPulse Associate Editor
This year marks the 20th year for Fall Festival at Massanutten, the most popular area event of the season, where Massanutten Resort will welcome more than 6,000 attendees from the local area and beyond to their ski slopes in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley in Virginia for a celebration of all things fall.
This year's event will be held on Saturday, October 13 from 11:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. and will provide a little something for everyone.
Visitors can partake in a host of fun, which this year includes 3 live, local & regional bands, including sets from the lively Dell Foxx Company, The Hackens Boys, and a rare performance by Mike Davis & Joe Gioscio. A beer & wine garden, food trucks and scenic chairlift rides add to the party.
Plus, with Paint-Your-Own Mini Pumpkins, Face Painting, Corn Hole, Backyard Kerplunk, Yard Jenga and Sand Art, this year's Fall Festival is serving up tons of activities to keep the little ones busy-so bring the whole family!
At the heart of the festival, Massanutten has always had their focus on community, which is why Fall Festival showcases all the best of the Shenandoah Valley, including unique arts & crafts, delicious beer & wine, and fresh & creative food options. What's even better is that all proceeds from the festival benefit the McGaheysville & Elkton Fire & Rescue Squads.
