This year’s Margate Fall Festival will be fun for all ages.
The annual fest will be held Saturday, Oct. 28, at Margate Sports Complex, 1695 Banks Road, from 6 to 10 p.m., and Margate spokesperson Maria Fallon says the Festival has attracted thousands of visitors in years past.
Lots of Halloween fun is planned, including a costume contest, a pre-carved pumpkin contest, a pumpkin patch, a photo booth, bounce houses, a haunted house, pony rides, a petting zoo, and a scarecrow-building contest.
Make sure to bring your most comfortable dancing shoes and your appetite because there’s plenty of live music, food trucks, and stalls.
