The Fall Foliage Festival has been a family tradition in Mid-Coast Maine for the past 57 years! In cooperation, the Boothbay Region Information Center and the Boothbay Railway Village are excited to host the 58th annual in 2026. In addition to the traditional event favorites, there will be dozens of vendor booths, fabulous entertainment and live music, delicious fall foods, live artist exhibits and a children’s scavenger hunt or activity -- we are planning a few new activities and will post as available.
