The Curated Autumn List: Local Happenings in September & October🍁
Date Published

Though we know Autumn doesn’t officially arrive for a few weeks - we also know that you want to know what events are happening to get you prepared to enjoy the season! Between meeting spirits, celebrating the harvest and spooky events after sunset - there’s tons of events to have fun at.🎃 🧡
For years, we’ve used our social channels to champion local events, but we know keeping track of everything happening can feel like a full-time job (and it’s our actual full-time job, so we truly get it).
With a new season comes plenty to see, do, eat and explore across our community. And our website is here to help you find it all in one place, whether you’re a lifelong local or just visiting and looking for your next favourite spot.
So, consider this your sign to swap the sandals for sweaters and make the most of the season.
