Come to the annual Long Beach Fall Festival. Stroll through Kennedy Plaza taking in the sights, sounds, and smells of autumn. The weekend’s centerpiece is the pumpkin patch filled with thousands of pumpkins waiting to be picked!

A Pumpkin Bounce House, Carousel, Hay Wagon Ride, and Fire Truck Rides are just some of the fun-filled kids activities returning this year. The children’s activity tent, also returns, featuring fall-related craft projects.

Plus, the Ferris Wheel provides majestic views of the beach and bay. At noon on Saturday, children in costumes will parade from the Recreation Center to Kennedy Plaza. Awards for best costumes and other categories will be given and each child in costume will receive special treats.
