The event included carnival rides, games, food vendors, a craft beer event on Saturday, merchandise vendors, and more. The event created a fantastic backdrop shared among many across social media. Even though the weather was not favorable, especially on Saturday, this family-fun event still did its magic to create many memories for those who attended. En Fuego Events will provide an oral presentation to the ATBID Advisory Board that includes the marketing dollars invested, the number of people that attended the event, and where they came from as a result of Atascadero Fall Fest 2025. In addition, En Fuego Events had added Colony Days Parade & Festivities to the event in 2025, with a plan to continue in 2026 and a commitment to change the date due to poor weather patterns – determined as October 16-18, 2026, which will remain on the 3rd weekend in October each year following the 2026 event through 2028.
