AppleFest Weekend II

Saturday, October 25th – Sunday, October 26th

10:00am – 5:00pm Daily

Halloween is another New England favorite! Wachusett’s second weekend of AppleFest is a celebration of our favorite Fall holiday, featuring apple-flavored treats from candy to cocktails, and one of the most unique views of the peak Fall foliage in Massachusetts. Extended to two weekends due to popularity!

🍎 Hot apple cider, fresh cider donuts, apple soda & more from the Red Apple Farm stand
🎶 Live music all weekend long including groovy beats from local festival favorites Terrafunk.
🪄 Daily Magic & Circus Shows, contests, and roaming entertainment.
🎃 Spooky specials! Come dressed in your Halloween best and enter the costume contest.
🍺 The most beer of the year. Seasonal pumpkin ale, cider, IPAs, and more from all our local brewery favorites.
🍔 Fantastic food trucks serving up everything from egg rolls to caramel corn.
🛍️ Local Crafters Market inside & outside with over thirty-five booths selling homemade jam, handmade jewelry, and more.
🍂 Our scenic Skyride is the best view on the mountain and foliage is already starting to turn.
🐻‍❄️ Children under 5 are free! A weekend of fun for the whole family.
🚄 Check the Ski Train schedule to find out how you can be shuttled to and from nearby Wachusett Station!

As a friendly reminder, we do not allow dogs or coolers at our festivals. Ticket prices increase for day-of sales.

Please note: While we work on replacing the Polar Express Lift to the summit, the Minuteman Express Lift will be running for skyrides. Round trip only, summit access not available.
