Bracelets are now on sale for Wellington’s annual Fall Festival, which will take place Saturday, Oct. 15, from 3 to 10 p.m. at Village Park (11700 Pierson Road). Extended hours provide families with younger children an opportunity to enjoy plenty of fun and activities earlier in the day, while still getting their little ghouls and goblins home in time for bed.
Wellington’s popular Haunted Hallways attraction returns to the Fall Festival this year, sponsored by Healthy Partners. Doors open at 5 p.m. Enter, if you dare, or enjoy one of the many spooktacular attractions, including bounce houses, hay rides, laser tag, a petting zoo, a pie-eating contest, trick-or-treating in the vendor area and more. Approximately 20 food trucks will be on-site with sweet and savory food and beverage items for purchase.
Attendees can also enjoy live performances on the sound stage, or participate in costume contests for prizes, with first through third place awards for each of the following age groups: under 3; ages 4 to 6; ages 7 to 10; ages 11 to 14; and age 15 and older. Costume contests will be held at 4 p.m. and 7 p.m.
Free shuttle service, sponsored by the Mall at Wellington Green, will be available from the Palm Tran bus stop located near Macy’s, beginning at 2:30 p.m.
The village offers special thanks to the Joe DiMaggio Children’s Health Specialty Center, the Fall Festival featured sponsor, as well as Humana (costume contests), JupiterBounce.com (inclusive inflatable) and Wellington Regional Medical Center (bounce houses).
