Autumn brings with it quite a few cherished traditions, including the Autumn Leaf Festival in Pennsylvania. For more than a week, Pennsylvanians and visitors from all over converge on the picturesque town of Clarion to celebrate the most colorful season of the year with family-friendly activities, live entertainment, and good food. However, that’s just the beginning of the fun that awaits.
The 68th Annual Autumn Leaf Festival in Clarion runs from October 2-10, 2021, promising nine days jam-packed with fun for the entire family. Visit for one day or come back for multiple days, so you can fit in all of the fun.
An abundance of kid-friendly events are planned for the popular festival, including a children’s carnival, a “touch-a-truck” event, and Junior Olympics, the latter of which is geared toward kids between five and 12 years of age.
If you’re into all things classic, you’ll definitely want to check out the Classic Rock Concert and the Autoroma Cruise-In. Show off your vintage vehicle during the Cruise-In, which will be held on Main Street.
Stock up on fresh fruits, vegetables, and other goodies at the Clarion County Farmers Market, set for several days throughout the festival. Plenty of food vendors will also be on hand.
Save some time, too, to explore downtown Clarion. If you love to shop, you’re visiting at just the right time. Downtown Deal Days will be held on several days throughout the festival.
