Space Coast Festival & Event Season Preview

Reasons to visit this fall season

There is just something about the cooler weather that makes us all feel a bit cozy. For those from up north, you may already be experiencing heavy coat weather, but here on the Space Coast, we are averaging about 85°F during the day and a nice cool, breezy 75°F at night, perfect weather for a whole day outside. Already getting that itch to get away to the Space Coast aren’t you? No? Well, this may change your mind.

One of the great reasons for visiting the Space Coast is that you can experience great weather year-round. But visiting in the fall has a uniqueness to it that makes it one of the top places to visit this time of the year. A coastal spin on outdoor events and festivals, a tropical paradise where the fragrance of pumpkin-spice and everything nice mix with the fresh salty sea air, and a laid-back vibe bring the perfect balance to ease into fall.

Here are more reasons why to visit this fall:

Special Events

From spectacular food & wine events to ones that help kick off the most wonderful time of the year, there’s no shortage of events taking place on the Space Coast. And like we mentioned before, the weather is near perfect when these events take place.

The Rocky Water Brew Fest has been taking place in the Eau Gallie Arts District the last four years and will take place on October 20, 2018. Featuring craft beer from all over Florida, this is a great event surrounded by life-size murals in the heart of EGAD. Here’s a look at some of the other events coming up:

Outdoor Activities

In case you haven’t noticed, the weather has been mentioned many times throughout this blog. Why? Because you cannot ask for better weather during the fall months. Perhaps you’re into running, or maybe you’re looking to get outdoors and soak up some Vitamin-D. These events are just for you.

Of course, we can’t forget about Halloween events. Check them out here. Still can’t decide that enjoying a fall getaway on the Space Coast is for you? Don’t forget about the cruises occurring throughout each week sailing out of one of the world’s best ports, Port Canaveral. You could also plan a visit around one of the many rocket launches that happen on a regular basis here on the Space Coast.
