Fall Fun in Central Texas: 15 Can’t-Miss Seasonal Events
Hey, fall lovers; it’s that time of year! Think pumpkins, mazes, haunted houses, and evenings full of magic. I dug into a great list from Community Impact of 15 seasonal events around Austin and beyond, and I’m pulling out my favorites (with all the links) so you can plan your best fall ever.

🍁 Some Practical Tips (from me)
Always double-check dates and hours before heading out; things change mid-season.
Wear layers; early fall days are warm in Texas, but evenings get crisp fast.
Bring a flashlight or use your phone'; some hikes or maze paths get dim.
If you have littles, pick one or two high-impact events so you don’t overwhelm them (or yourself!).
Let me know which ones you plan to visit, I’m tempted to hit them all. And if you discover a hidden pumpkin patch or haunted house not on the list, send it my way; I’ll share it in next week’s list!
Happy Fall Ya’ll!
