Best Fall Festivals in the Cincinnati Area {2023}

Fall festivals are abundant come September and October in the Cincinnati area. In fact, you’re likely to find fall festivals near you every weekend for a few months!

If you’re looking for a long hayride, bonfires, a chewy caramel apple, pumpkin patches, and loads of fall fun, this is your list!

Pumpkin Patch at a Farm

TIPS: Keep in mind that many of these farms will only accept cash so plan ahead. If it’s raining or really wet, check with the farm to be sure they’re still operational for the day. And an extra set of clothes and a few towels thrown into the truck are always a good idea when you’re playing hard!
