We apologize to the readers holding onto summer. Between football and the Keeneland Fall Meet, there’s no shortage of fun things coming our way in the next few months. So let’s dive in to some fall happenings coming up.
Oktoberfest, Christ the King | Friday, Sept. 20-Saturday, Sept. 21
This annual festival is a staple in the community for a reason. Enjoy two nights of German fare like bratwursts + sauerkraut, live music, Black Jack, a cake wheel, and of course, beer.
Harvest Festival, Shaker Village | Friday, Sept. 28-Saturday, Sept. 29
Venture down the road to Harrodsburg for a day of history and family fun. Here, you and the kids can experience live apple pressing, hayrides, pumpkin painting, shopping, and meeting the farm animals.
Thriller Halloween Parade, Downtown Lexington | Sunday, Oct. 20
Your body will start to shiver as you head downtown for this scary, yet family-friendly event where zombies take the streets for a dance performance of Michael Jackson’s “Thriller.”
