The Scottsdale Fall Festival is moving to Scottsdale Civic Center, 3939 N. Drinkwater Blvd., from 5 to 8 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 18.

The free, family-friendly event features a live band, DJ, magic show and, for the first time ever, a cocktail garden.

Kids can fill up their bags in Trick-or-Treat Alley, explore the Pumpkin Patch, enjoy carnival-style games, crafts, face painting and hands-on activities.

Don’t miss out on “Tales from the Haunted Stacks,” a spooky library experience where storybook monsters come to life, according to the release. Costumes are welcome but not required to join in on the fun.

Also, visitor information booths hosted by City of Scottsdale departments will be there to inform residents about upcoming projects and allow them to connect with staff.
