🍂 One of Philly’s beloved fall traditions is back in Manayunk.
On Saturday, October 17, Manayunk Fall Fest returns for its second year following a huge debut in 2025, bringing an afternoon of local makers, seasonal treats, live music and family-friendly activities to historic Main Street.
🛍️ Shop local: More than 50 vendors and artisan makers will be part of the festival, with food trucks, seasonal treats and special promotions from participating Manayunk shops and restaurants throughout the day.
🎃 There’s plenty for the whole family: Expect a pop-up pumpkin patch with pumpkin decorating and carnival games, face painting, caricatures, a fall-themed photo booth and more. Venice Island will also host a Kids Market featuring 40 young entrepreneurs who have created their own products and will sell them during the festival.
🎶 Live music will fill the neighborhood: Three outdoor sound stages will feature performances throughout the afternoon, including live bands, a line dancing demonstration and more.
🧀 And then there’s the Mac N’ Cheese Crawl. The ticketed tasting event returns from noon to 4 p.m., with participating Manayunk restaurants serving up creative takes on the comfort food classic. Tickets are $20 and include samples at each stop, an event map and exclusive crawl-day offers.
🐶 Animal lovers can also stop by Richard’s Apex for Bennett’s Buddies’ “Paws for a Cause” benefiting the Pennsylvania SPCA. Guests can meet adoptable animals and drop off much-needed pet food, blankets, towels and other shelter supplies.
