If you’re enjoying the seasons shifting, there’s a fall Family Fun Festival in Palmer, Alaska that you have to visit. Filled with pumpkins, hay rides, reindeer, and snow-covered mountain peaks, it’s everything you could want out of an autumn festival. But it’s only happening three weekends this October, so buy your tickets now!
Looking forward to all of the fall fun Alaska has to offer?
If you’re looking for a family-friendly event, the Williams Reindeer Farm in Palmer is the place to go. Every year they host a huge event on three Saturdays in October.
The festival is held on a Reindeer farm, so you can expect all of the traditional fall fun to be paired with petting and photos of reindeer and pony rides.
This event is perfect for kids, with plenty of fun tailored just for them. They’ll love the children’s inflatable obstacle course, Spooky Walk, and horse-drawn wagon ride!

There’s only an espresso stand available this year, so make sure to eat before you come.
Dress warmly, because the wind can get chilly even on a sunny day. And remember to wear closed-toed shoes because there will be plenty of mud around that can get your feet dirty. It’s a sign of a good time at a farm!
This year, the event will be held on three Saturdays in October: October 8th, October 15th, and October 22nd.
Tickets are sold online and sell out each year, so be sure to purchase them as soon as possible! And tickets get you a discount at the Pumpkin Patch, where giant pumpkins that are typically $20.00 are only $15.00. Small pumpkins that are usually $15.00 will only be $10.00.
Tickets are $15.00 for ages 3 and older, and free for under 3 years old.
If you have a Saturday free in October, make this Fall Family Fun Festival a priority! It’s something the whole family will love. Because who doesn’t want to pet a moose or reindeer while getting their autumn pumpkins? We know we do!
