Fairy & Arts Festival
September 12, 2026 - 12:00 pm - 6:00 pm at Nonotuck Park
1 Daly Field
The Fairy & Arts Festival is a celebration of the Magical World of Fairy Folk and the Creative Arts. The festival will have food, music, dance, theatrical performances, literature & art. The theme of this year’s inaugural festival is “BELIEVE”. An inspirational theme whispered to organizers from the fairy folk themselves. With the fairies come all things magical and the fairies have cast their fairy dust on the day of September 12th, 2026, to hold this enchanting event. With whispers of excitement, giggles and laughter the fairies ran off, hopping toadstool to toadstool to tell the Easthampton Fairies of Nonotuck Park that their fairyland, their very special realm was chosen to serve up a day of Magic, Fun and Enchantment. There is much to be done; much more is needed to prepare, but not a worry nor despair for fairies have magical dust and spells in their care.
