WASHINGTON, DC — Heading into the first weekend of November, it's a transition from fall and spooky events to holiday shopping season.

We've rounded up local events happening Friday, Nov. 5 through Sunday, Nov. 7. There are still fall festivals and Halloween events wrapping up. It's the last weekend for the Fields of Fear at Cox Farms and Workhouse Haunt: The Collection.

Other major events include the DC Big Flea Antique Market, DC Beer Festival, Dia de los Muertos Fest, DMV Black Restaurant Week and GW Parkway Classic.
