ColorFest

ColorFest is Bernheim's beloved annual fall celebration, bringing two days of outdoor family activities to the beautiful landscape. Running from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., the festival offers something for every age, including popular attractions like giant slides, a mud pie kitchen, pumpkin rolling, and hands-on nature activities led by volunteer naturalists. Live music performances and a variety of local food and beverage vendors round out the experience, making it easy to spend the whole day exploring and enjoying the season together. This is one of Bernheim's longest-running festivals, so families can expect a well-organized event with plenty to keep kids engaged outdoors. Whether your children want to play in nature-focused stations, listen to live entertainment, or simply wander the colorful grounds, ColorFest combines active fun with the natural beauty of fall. It's a great way to celebrate the season as a family while supporting a local institution.
