Fall is a time for festivals, and no place is more festive than Wachusett Mountain. Just ask the youngsters who gather for the mountain’s annual KidsFest (Sept. 20-21), a weekend full of fantasy, fun, and fantastic food trucks. These New Englanders also know that true Oktoberfest actually starts in September (27-28) and at Wachusett, that means stein hoisting, keg tossing, and plenty of local craft beer whether you have German ancestry or not. And why wait for Halloween? Break out the costumes at BooFest (October 4-5) where you can find plenty of tricks and treats to go with spooky New England history at this mountain fright-fest suitable for all ages.
