Lincolnshire Front Porch Festival
Now in its ninth year, the Lincolnshire Front Porch Festival turns the neighborhood into one big stage with more than 20 local musicians and bands performing from porches all around. Add in a lineup of food trucks, a lively crowd, and plenty of fall vibes, and you’ve got an afternoon that feels like pure community spirit. Best of all? It’s free, family-friendly, and even pet-approved.
West Side Nut Club Fall Festival
One of the largest street festivals in the nation, the West Side Nut Club Fall Festival is a can’t-miss October tradition. Franklin Street buzzes with rides, parades, live entertainment, and more than 100 food booths serving up everything from local favorites to quirky, once-a-year creations. The best part? Every booth is run by a local nonprofit, so every funnel cake, pronto pup, or fried oddity you try helps support community organizations. At this festival, treating yourself also means giving back.
Fall Market on Main
If your perfect fall day involves wandering rows of booths with a coffee in hand and something new catching your eye at every turn, the Fall Market on Main in Downtown Henderson is calling your name. This community favorite brings together artisans, handcrafters, and vendors offering everything from antiques and handmade treasures to tasty bites and unique finds. The mix is eclectic, the atmosphere is lively, and the whole event feels like the best kind of small-town Saturday.
Harvest Happy Hour
Urban Seeds and Arcademie are serving up a flavorful twist on happy hour with their Harvest Happy Hour series. This round is dedicated to garlic lovers, with an appetizer spread that puts the “stinking rose” front and center. Pair your bites with a savory cocktail crafted by the Arcademie staff, and know that your suggested $10 donation helps Urban Seeds expand nutritious food access, offer food education, and create outlets for local producers.
