There is nothing quite like a good old-fashioned autumn gathering, and we want YOU to get in on the fun!

The businesses of Burlington Downtown invite you to pull on your fleece, lace up those boots and join us for a day of FREE fall fun. We proudly present our annual autumn downtown showcase … Falling for Burlington Downtown!!

Get ready to fall for a  day filled with fun for all ages, treats & sweets, drinks & bites and so much more.

The FREE fun and activities at our annual downtown event marks a day of self-led exploration in your own backyard. Take in delicious pizza and nibbles along the Promenade walkway. Play games and snap some Instagram worthy pics in Civic Square (City Hall)! Enjoy seasonal treats and sweets along Brant Street & in Village Square.

Have you had your first PSL yet this season (I mean, come on Pumpkin Spice Lattes are delish!)? Have you picked up that oh-so-cozy fleece sweater that just screams comfy? Ready to enjoy that satisfying hearty fall meal on a crisp autumn night? Burlington Downtown has you covered! As you take in the sights of the season, make sure to take in all our downtown business community has to offer.
Shop, dine, sip and everything in between as you visit over 400 small businesses that proudly call downtown home.

Need a minute to decompress? Enjoy our new sensory zone! This special place offers visitors a break from the day’s activities with calming lighting, lowered sounds and multi-sensory relaxation activities. Need a hand while visiting the sensory zone? Our event staff has you covered, we’re here to help!

We’re also looking forward to having Rent N Style at this year’s Falling for Downtown Burlington. They will be joining us with their balloon arch installation for all attendees to capture some great moments!

There is something for everyone and we warmly welcome you to our small business community for seasonal fun! Falling for Burlington Downtown takes place Saturday October 5th, from 12pm to 4pm.

We’re always adding more fun to the mix, so check back soon for updates on all the festive activities.
