What Are You Doing This Weekend?
Let us help you figure it out
Fall is Near
Leaves are turning color, the smell of burning wood is in the air and pumpkin spice is about to be everywhere. With the summer heat on its way out, now is the time to plan to get out and enjoy cooler temperatures, and Out & About Wisconsin media is bulging with ideas for fall fun.
Check out the entire site, Out & About Wisconsin Magazine SEPT/OCT 2026 issue, and our Facebook Page for all the details you need to enjoy Wisconsin’s offerings.
Look around, find your fun, and make your plans. Then turn off your device, and get out and do what you like to do.
Be sure to make a stop on (and then bookmark) our THINGS TO DO IN WISCONSIN calendar page (click name here or via the menu at the top of the page). You can filter and sort events by date, city and event type and more!
