10th Annual Downtown BGKY Harvest Festival

You're invited to join us for the 10th Annual Downtown BGKY Harvest Festival on Saturday, October 17 from 11am to 5pm, presented by Houchens Food Group! We’ve extended the day by 1 hour for more Fall fun and shopping! And we’ve expanded the arts and crafts vendor area with a street fair down College Street from Fountain Square to the Houchens Small Business Accelerator’s 3rd St. block. Houchens Food Group has proudly stepped in as a presenting sponsor of this event, thanks to the expansion of free activities, the street fair, and live entertainment being held at the Houchens Small Business Accelerator.
Find FREE admission to kids' activities, live music, craft vendors, local food trucks, the BG Trolley loop, and more at SOKY Center, The Fringe, Circus Square and Fountain Squares, and the new Houchens Small Business Accelerator.
This is Downtown BGKY's kickoff to the Fall season with family events like hay forts and inflatables, Midway carnival style games, the BG Trolley hop on/off service and Lil Toot, and the infamous pumpkin drops at Circus Square. Catch a Fall Fiesta leaning into Dia de Los Muertos (Day of the Dead) at Fountain Square with help from our Latino community, along with inflatables and live entertainment!
Catch BG and Warren County Parks & Rec friends with free activities, several BG area attractions offering free fun, and much more!
