Celebrate the magic of autumn at University Town Center’s Sarasota Fall Fest & Carnival, a family-friendly weekend packed with classic midway rides, carnival games, and festival food favorites. Feel the nostalgia of Ferris wheels and funnel cakes under the glow of evening lights, or spend the afternoon letting the kids test their courage on ziplines, swings, and fun-house adventures.
Each day offers something a little different — from after-work thrills on Thursday and Friday nights to all-day excitement Saturday and Sunday. Whether you’re visiting with friends, a date, or the whole family, this is one of Sarasota’s most anticipated fall traditions.
