A Fall Festival with Craft Fair, Pumpkin Lights, and Country Concerts
Silver Dollar City’s Harvest Festival opens September 11 and runs through October 31, featuring one of the largest craft fairs in the country, the spectacular Pumpkin Nights after-dark display, and three country concerts at Echo Hollow Amphitheatre. The festival pairs an award-winning craft fair with fall food specials, harvest entertainment, and pumpkin-themed photo opportunities throughout the park.
A 20-minute drive from Roark Creek Resort — one of Branson’s must-do fall experiences.
Who It’s For: Families, craft enthusiasts, fall lovers, country music fans, photographers, and pumpkin-decor enthusiasts.
What to Expect: Massive craft fair with hundreds of artisans, Pumpkin Nights after-dark light display, country concerts at Echo Hollow (Diamond Rio Sep 12, Aaron Tippin Sep 19, Sara Evans Sep 26), harvest-themed food, and fall decorations throughout the park.
Do’s: Stay into the evening for Pumpkin Nights, buy tickets in advance for the country concerts, plan multiple visits to see different parts of the festival, and bring layers for cool evenings.
Don’ts: Don’t miss the after-dark Pumpkin Nights display. Don’t visit on a single weekend trip — the festival is too big.
