Fall is Full of Fun in Sedona

It is finally officially Fall and a favorite time of year for many, including residents of Sedona. Fall is one of the most fun times to be in Sedona, not just because of the changing weather, but because of all of the great things to do in the community. Here are just some of the fun activities available during fall in Sedona. 

Sedona Airport Family Fun Day 


A favorite among Sedona residents, that is highly anticipated every year. There is always a large display of fascinating aircraft from historic to modern. Some planes on display include warbirds, vintage planes, and aircraft with the most modern advancements in technology. This year’s showcase includes a World War II B-25 bomber with a chance at a once-in-a-lifetime ride over Sedona’s amazing red rock country.  
 
This event will be held Saturday, October 5 at the Sedona Airport from 9 am to 3 pm.  


 
Something Scary This Way Comes 


On October 17th enjoy the live readings of some scary classics including Edgar Allan Poe’s works, Grimm’s Fairy tales, indigenous people’s stories, a vampire, and some infamous witches. The event costs $10 plus a donation and begins at 7:30 pm at Tlaquepaque Village. 


 
Pumpkin Splash 


This is not your typical pumpkin patch pumpkin hunt. At the Sedona Community Pool, you get to pick your pumpkin out of the water. The pool will be filled with floating pumpkins and swimmers get to hop in and find the perfect one. Each ticket holder will get to go home with their very favorite pumpkin. The event costs $5 a person and is on October 19 from 1-3 pm.
