Things To Do
Pennsylvania Renaissance Faire
The PA Renaissance Faire is one of our yearly traditions. We love attending with friends and family members to spend a day in the shire. There are local artisan shops, delicious food, entertaining shows and plenty of old fashioned costumes. All alcoholic beverages are brewed/distilled locally at the Mount Hope Estate and Winery. We plan to attend the faire on Saturday, October 12th and we would love to see you there!
Hershey Park
Halloween at Hershey Park begins this September. The park will be open October 12-13th for rides, trick-or-treating, character glow dance parties, and "to face the frightening terrors of dark nights that lurk in the shadows".
Lititz Chocolate Walk
Lititz is a cute, small town in Lancaster that has a walkable "main" street with plenty of local shops. On October 12th, they are hosting their annual "Chocolate Walk" where you can purchase a ticket to sample approximately 25 chocolate treats from local artisans. Ticket Sales begin July 1, 2024.
Cherry Crest Adventure Farm
Cherry Crest Adventure Farm is one of the most recommended fall activities in the area. The farm hosts a 5-acre corn maze, a paintball range, apple blasters, petting zoo, and plenty of local merchandise including flowers and sweet fall treats.
Shady Maple Smorgasbord
Shady Maple is the largest smorgasbord in the United States, boasting over 200 feet of fresh meals as well as over 44,000 sqft of shopping space. Shady Maple is definitely an experience, expect to spend a couple of hours at this location. Please note: the smorgasbord and its shops are not open on Sundays.
Hershey Bears Hockey
While the 2024-2025 schedule has not yet been released, the Hershey Bears' hockey season will be gearing to ramp up this time of year. These thirteen-time Calder Cup champions are exciting to watch at the Giant Center. (Go Phantoms!)
