TODAY IS THE DAY! 🎃🍂

One of the BEST fall days around is happening right here in Downtown Minden, and the fun starts NOW!

Shop, eat, play, explore, and enjoy everything our Main Street District has to offer! Our local shops have specials waiting, the Civic Center is ready for a little Hocus Pocus, and there’s fun around every corner!

Bring the kids, grab your friends, and make a whole day of it! Shopping, food trucks, family activities, a parade rolling at 5 PM, and live music afterward!

The weather is feeling like fall, the district is ready, and memories are waiting to be made!

Wear comfy shoes and a costume (if your heart desires), bring a chair for parade and the outdoor movie, cash (just in case), a good attitude and a great appetite!

Come see why Downtown Minden is THE place to be today! 🧡
