About the weekend

Over Columbus Day Weekend, our seaside village leans into fall, warm enough to sunbathe by day and cool enough for bonfires by night, with the whole beach town dressed in autumn color.

Below is how the three days unfold, from Friday’s kickoff through an easy, unhurried Sunday.

What to expect

Live music and headliner bands
Fall market and pop-up boutiques
Cinema Shore on the Great Lawn
Pumpkin patch, hay rides, and a petting zoo
Wine tastings and s’mores at the firepit
