SubscribeKFEST, Kinnelon’s free fall celebration, returns to the grounds of Borough Hall on Saturday, September 26, 2026, from 1 to 8 p.m. The all-day community festival brings more than 100 vendors, live music, a beer garden, food trucks, free kids rides, and an evening fireworks show to 130 Kinnelon Road.
Now one of the borough’s signature events, KFEST turns the Borough Hall green into a block party for families across the Kinnelon area. Admission is free, and there is something happening at every hour of the afternoon and into the night.
What to Expect at KFEST
The vendor market and free kids rides run from 1 to 6 p.m., with more than 100 craft, food, and small-business vendors set up across the grounds. Families can also count on favorites like a petting zoo, pony rides, and bounce houses, plus the Kidz Biz Korner, where local kids sell their own handmade creations.
Live music, the beer garden, and the food trucks keep going from 1 to 8 p.m. This year’s lineup includes Nashville-based country duo Luke and Kaylee, who take the stage in the early evening. The night closes with a fireworks show.
