This weekend the community of Riley, KS will be holding the annual Riley Fall Festival on Oct 18th, 2025!
As we welcome the Fall season it is time to enjoy the festivals in the area. One of my favorites is the Riley Fall Fall Festival! For those in the BBQ competition, the Riley Fall Festival kicks off at 5 am. If you are like me and coming for the fun, 8 am will be your start time on Saturday with Biscuits and Gravy at the Riley City Library.
The car show begins shortly after at 9 am and runs until 11 am. Right after, attendees can enjoy the 1st Infantry Division Band on the main stage, a variety of vendor booths, and the beer garden will open. If Cornhole is your game, sign your team up and compete in the Fall Festival Cornhole Tournament. It begins at 11 am, so sign up asap!
There is plenty of fun for the kiddos as well at the Riley Fall Festival. The kids can enjoy train rides, balloon twisters, bounce houses, and more! Head to the Petting Zoo and JR. Firefighter Training and then enjoy more performances on the main stage.
Grab some food from the food vendors and enjoy some Bluegrass at noon on the main stage!
The day will end with the pie contest winners and dinner outside of the Riley Bank building. The BBQ contest winners will be announced, and the public will get to enjoy the BBQ. Wrapping up the day, with my personal favorite band, Mother's Worry! Mother's Worry plays a great mix of music, and they are all great songs everyone knows!
The weekend looks beautiful, so enjoy the day in Riley, KS, and enjoy a great fall festival! See the events calendar or follow their Facebook page for details!
