Event Description

Summer may be fading, but the skies are still sunny enough for short sleeves, the air is crisp, fresh, and tinged with the scent of cool nights, and the leaves are just beginning to turn. And the Bank of the Cascades Bend Fall Festival — a homey harvest celebration with good-natured competition, kid-happy fun and arts of all kinds — is the perfect way to ease the spirit into the delights of the new season. Producer Cameron Clark of C3 Events enjoys watching what the event brings to the community. “It truly feels like the locals come out to say good-bye to summer,” he said.Come join us and enjoy the celebration! Hundreds of artisans will be on hand offering their works for sale. Several musical artists and entertainers will grace the Main Stage and International Stage with their talents; and of course, attendees can enjoy the cuisine of several local restaurants.

For the health-conscious, the Bank of the Cascades Bend Fall Festival welcomes the Bend Memorial Clinic Health and Wellness Resource Exhibit. This area will feature some of Central Oregon's finest health care professionals, presenting interactive wellness activities and information about healthy lifestyle choices for all ages.

C3 Events wishes to thank the Bank of the Cascades for their continued commitment to the residents and visitors of Bend. These opportunities to gather and celebrate are what keeps our community vital, and we are honored to produce the Bend Fall Festival. So join us to live it, taste it, chew it, view it, hear it, and dance it, (got it?) at the Bank of the Cascades Bend Fall Festival 2010!
