Entertainment for Your Fall Festival

Autumn festivals are a tradition as old as time when people gave thanks and celebrated a bountiful harvest. While most people won’t be bringing in crops, they’ll be harvesting fun when you hold a fall festival. Autumn is an excellent time for an autumn get together with entertainments to match. Don’t forget the music.

Bounce House

A staple of any fair, carnival or festival, renting a bounce house will provide hours of fun for children ages 6 to 12.

Carnival Games

No festival would be complete without some games of chance. Hosts can rent carnival games encompassing Whack a Mole, skee ball, basketball throw, and dunk tank. You can also include a safe battle axe throw, balloon pop, strongman game, and the ever-popular ring toss.

Face Painting

Children love face painting and there’s always a long waiting line to have their face adorned in everything from unicorns and wild animals to butterflies and superheroes. All that’s required is some Halloween makeup and talented artists.

Food Fest

Every festival must have food and there are multiple ways that can be supplied. The festival can include a chili cookoff, pie baking contest, BBQ, or practically any type of fall food offering. Include some fall favorites such as cider, spiced doughnuts, and caramel apples.

For large neighborhood gatherings, food trucks may be the solution. There are also machines that can be rented to provide a continuous supply of rotisserie hotdogs, snow cones, cotton candy, and popcorn.

Scavenger Hunt

A scavenger hunt can be as simple or complex as the host desires. There are options for adults to the youngest children.

Trampoline

People of all ages like to bounce and a bungee jump trampoline provide a safe means for teens and adults to experience the exhilaration of flying through the air.

Yard Games

Popular board games have made the leap to adult size yard games ranging from checkers to Connect Four.

Fall Festival Entertainment

Public and private fall festivals are a tradition, providing a farewell to summer and celebrating the autumn season. Whether the event is held as a private event or conducted by local businesses or communities, there are some things to keep in mind.

Consider the atmosphere to be created and think about the sights, sounds and flavors of a county fair. There are always certain entertainments that have a long line to be played. Equipping a fall festival with the right entertainment will result in a successful event.

Inflatables

A bounce house or playground for younger festival-goers is essential. There’s a myriad of bright and colorful themes from which to choose that will appeal to children. Adults enjoy competition and festival organizers can choose from an extensive range of obstacle courses, rock-climbing walls or a corn maze.

Mechanical Rides

For those that want something more challenging, consider a bungee trampoline, a virtual rollercoaster, mechanical bull, or a space-based interactive arena. There are also inflatables that enable people to test their skills at snowboarding, surfing and skateboarding.

Games

A range of games is critical and there’s an extensive selection from which to choose. Organizers can offer traditional favorites from skee ball, wack a mole, battle-ax game and ring toss to Plinko, basketball throw, connect four and football challenge. Photo booths are also available.

Music

A steady stream of upbeat music enhances the atmosphere and encourages individuals to have fun. Strategically placed speakers ensure that music reaches all areas of the festival grounds. Rock music is the traditional choice and it doesn’t have to rely on current hits. Don’t be reticent about including some “oldies” from artists encompassing Lady Gaga, Bruce Springsteen, Beyonce, Pink, Madonna, Aretha Franklin, Joan Jett, Christina Aguilera and Britney Spears.

Food

No festival would be complete without food. Virtually everyone enjoys a BBQ for a more filling option, but don’t overlook cotton candy, snow cones, popcorn and hotdogs for those that want to walk the festival while they munch. Don’t forget to have enough tables and chairs so people can eat and rest in comfort.

Great Fall things to do with Family

South Florida is the only region within mainland USA that has a tropical climate. The summers are extremely hot and humid while the fall season is milder in terms of temperature and humidity levels. The South Florida fall offers the best opportunity to enjoy outdoor activities without the punishing south Florida summer sun and humidity. If you, and your family, will be in South Florida during the fall season, there are numerous fun activities that the whole family can enjoy. They include:

Having a family cookout

Family cookouts are an affordable way for the whole family to enjoy the awesome South Florida autumn. Cookouts also offer a lot of flexibility depending on your budget and family size. Miami and other areas within South Florida have numerous public parks where you can set up a grill and let your family have fun. If you have a larger family and are working with a more permissive budget, you can make your cookout more memorable by introducing activities such as face painting, bouncing castles, water slides, carnival games, obstacle courses, board games, etc. The lower humidity also allows for more physically-exerting activities such as bike riding, rock climbing, soccer, and much more.

Have an Everglades airboat adventure  

The Everglades in South Florida offers one of the most unique ecosystems in Mainland America. The Everglades national park is abundant in wildlife having been maintained pristinely by the US National Park Service. The highlight of visiting the Everglades is enjoying the airboat adventure that takes you, and your family, through the Everglades wetlands. There you will see birds, alligators, crocodiles, and snakes. You can also hike through the jungle trail and view the numerous exhibits within the park. An excursion to the Everglades has enough fun activities for a full day trip and it also offers an educational experience at affordable prices.

Enjoy a Family beach day

South Florida has some of the most stunning beaches in North America. The temperate warmth of the South Florida autumn offers the best conditions to enjoy a beach day. Beach days, much like cookouts, offer a lot of flexibility in terms of the activities that you can enjoy. If you are working with a tight budget, you can still have fun on the beach by enjoying some free swimming. The kids can also play on the sand as they build sand castles. With more of a budget, you can enjoy boat rides, sailing, snorkeling, and other fun water activities that are abundant on South Florida beaches.

Visit Zoo Miami

South Florida, and especially Miami, has numerous attractions that are designed to cater to children. Zoo Miami is one of the best zoos in terms of animal diversity.
