Fall in Central Florida

Published on October 17, 2016

September 22 marked the first day of fall, which means we are officially in the season of pumpkin-flavored drinks, hayrides, and bonfires on cooler nights. At least, that’s how fall is portrayed. Soon it will be Halloween, and then Thanksgiving, and before we know it, it will be Christmas. We all know that here in Brevard County we do not fully experience all four seasons, with weather generally being warm year-round. At Cassel’s Garage, we don’t think the warm weather and lack of colorful leaves means we can’t experience fall like the rest of the country! We have complied some ideas below for fun fall activities and trips in the Melbourne, Florida area.

As we are getting closer to Halloween, pumpkin patches are popping up all over Brevard County. Visiting a pumpkin patch is a great opportunity to really get into the holiday spirit, and they provide a fun background for family photos! Not to mention there is no better place to get pumpkins for carving jack-o’-lanterns than actual pumpkin patches. Some pumpkin patch locations include the Rockledge United Methodist Church near Viera.

There are also numerous fall festivals over the next two months, mostly at different churches throughout the county. Some examples include fall festivals at Holy Name of Jesus in Indialantic, Our Saviors in Cocoa Beach, and Ascension Catholic Church. These festivals are staples of fall in Brevard County, with fun rides, seasonal games, and delicious food. Another fun fall event coming up is the Space Coast Oktoberfest & Music Festival during the second weekend in October. With a variety of beers for adults and a kids zone for children, this festival will surely be a highlight of fall for all of us living in Brevard County.

Some of the best places to go for fall activities are the Central Florida theme parks. The parks put on a variety of fall and Halloween-themed events. Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios is a very popular one, along with Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party at Magic Kingdom. Across the state, Busch Gardens puts on Howl-O-Scream. An added benefit of fall is that the lines at most of the theme parks overall are shorter, since summer is the peak theme park season.

With all of these upcoming fall events, it is important to make sure our vehicles receive proper maintenance. At Cassels Garage, we are here to help you with any auto repairs or car services you may need so you can enjoy exploring all the fun fall events without having any car problems.
