Celebrate the Season at Montgomery’s 2026 Harvest Festival

The City of Montgomery invites residents and visitors to celebrate the magic of autumn at the 2026 Harvest Festival, a fun‑filled community tradition returning to beautiful Riverfront Park on Saturday, October 17, 2026, from 3 to 6 p.m.

This free, family‑friendly festival promises a vibrant afternoon of fall sights, sounds, and activities for all ages. Guests can explore the Harvest Junction Marketplace, where local makers and small businesses will showcase handmade goods, seasonal treats, and unique finds. Kids are in for an unforgettable time with free pumpkins and on‑site decorating, face painting, balloon twisting, and a delightful petting zoo filled with friendly animals.

One of the festival’s most anticipated traditions returns as City departments go head‑to‑head in a wildly creative decoration competition - and this year’s surprise theme is sure to bring extra excitement to Riverfront Park.

Visitors can also enjoy delicious bites from popular local food trucks and move to the beat of upbeat, kid‑friendly music curated by our festival DJ. Whether families are stopping by for trick‑or‑treat fun or adults are simply looking to enjoy a crisp fall afternoon along the river, the Harvest Festival truly offers something for everyone.
