TPEC: The Tewksbury Public Events and Celebrations Committee (TPEC) is pleased to announce that it will host its 6th Annual Fall Harvest Festival on Sunday, September 29, 2019 from 12-5pm at the Livingston Field Recreation Complex.

TPEC is bringing a variety of food, fun, and entertainment for this year’s harvest festival. If you have attended in years past, you will see some familiar faces in Rattlesnake Alley and Wicked Cornhole. In addition to the live musical entertainment and a couple of several Tewksbury businesses, we have confirmed nearly a dozen food vendors including Crispelli USA, Pete’s Pushcarts, and Mimzee’s Ice Cream.

There will be several rides for the kids (or kids at heart!) including thrill rides, family-friendly roller coasters, train rides for the little ones, and more to come. Unlimited-ride bracelets can be purchased for $10.00 per person. Individual ride tickets can also be purchased for $2.00 each or three tickets for $5.00. All rides are cash only.

If rides are not your thing, there will be kids pie-eating contests, pumpkin decorating, and fall-
themed lawn games. You can enjoy some live jazz music while you peruse over 60 craft vendors ranging from homemade jams to handmade clothing. You can also visit some baby animals brought to you by Krachmal Farm!

Parking will be available at the Tewksbury State Hospital with FREE shuttle buses to the festival. Parking on Livingston Street is limited to vendors, volunteers, and handicapped- placarded vehicles. Livingston Street will be closed to through traffic during the festival.
