The mountains are bursting with color, the air is crisp, and Killington Resort is bringing the community together for one of the most beloved autumn events of the year — the Harvest Faire, happening Saturday, October 11, 2025, at the Snowshed Base Area. (killington.com)
This free, family-friendly event is the perfect way to spend a fall day in the Green Mountains. Wander through the vendor village filled with local artisans, handmade crafts, and seasonal goods. Kids can enjoy pumpkin painting, face painting, bounce houses, and even wagon rides through the foliage while parents soak up the music, mountain views, and festive vibes.
For adults looking for a little friendly competition, don’t miss the Stein Hoisting Contest, where participants test their strength and endurance for prizes — or try out axe-throwing (ages 18 and up) for some extra fun. The afternoon features live music, great food, and plenty of space to kick back and enjoy the fall sunshine.
The Harvest Faire captures everything we love about Vermont in October — community, color, good food, and that unmistakable Killington Mountain spirit. Whether you come for the tunes, the kids’ activities, or just to take in the autumn scenery, it’s the perfect day to celebrate the season before ski season begins.
Join the fun on October 11th from 10 AM to 5 PM at Killington’s Snowshed Base Area and make it a fall weekend to remember. For full event details, visit killington.com.
