ColorFest

ColorFest is Bernheim's beloved autumn celebration, and this year's event spans two full days of outdoor family activities. Held at the Visitor Center, you'll find classic favorites like giant slides, a mud pie kitchen, and pumpkin rolling—perfect for keeping kids entertained. The festival also showcases live music performances and hands-on nature activities that let families explore the grounds together while enjoying the season's colorful landscape. Beyond the activities, there's plenty to keep the whole family satisfied with local food and drink vendors on-site. Whether your kids are into active play or you'd prefer a more relaxed pace enjoying music and nature, ColorFest offers something for everyone. It's a great way to spend a weekend day outdoors with minimal planning—just show up and let the kids play.
