YodaHave you taken your family to the Old West Festival yet this year?  If not, you need to make plans to get there this weekend because Saturday, October 11th and Sunday October 12th are the LAST DAYS to visit the Old West Festival until next fall!!!  My family loves this festival so much, it’s one of our favorite fall happenings.  We went a few weeks ago and rode the ponies, watched the shows, panned for gold, did a little shopping and just generally had a fantastic day.  This isn’t just a great weekend to go because it’s the LAST weekend, but it’s also a great weekend to go because they will be celebrating Halloween in Dodge City this weekend!  Dress your munchkins up and they can get into the OWF for just one dollar!  What a deal!  And then on top of all the great Old West Fest activities that go on each weekend they can also go trick or treating, carve pumpkins and enter a costume contest!  It’s a perfect way to kick off the Halloween Season, and fun for the whole family!

Halloween Weekend at the Old West Festival
October 11-12OWF

What says Halloween more than a ghost town?  Well don’t be too scared pardners, we don’t intend to frighten anyone, just have some Halloween fun!  Any child 12 and under in their Halloween costume (superheroes, princesses, monsters, you name it!)  get in for $1.  What better way to get an extra use out of a child’s costume?

  • Halloween Costume Contest
  • Pumpkin Carving Contest
  • Trick or Treat through town
