There’s still room at O’Fallon’s Fall Fest for vendors selling their original art, unique handcrafted items, house and garden decorations and more. The event will be held in Civic Park from 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. on Saturday, October 12, 2013.

 “Traditionally, shoppers like to get a jump on their holiday gift shopping at the Fall Fest and select some things for themselves, too,” said Marsha Seymour, Manager of O’Fallon’s Tourism and Festivals department. “They’re looking to buy original art, upscale crafts and holiday decorations, accessories, re-purposed yard and garden items and more. Hand-crafted doll clothes, collectibles, unique costumes and seasonal accessories are always popular.”

In addition to booths brimming with festival merchandise, O’Fallon’s Fall Fest features free admission and parking, live acoustic music, free family entertainment and festival food and beverages for sale throughout the day. Event attendance averages 5,000+. The deadline to apply for booth space is 4 p.m. on Tuesday, September 10.
