READING, Pa. – We are a few days out from the official first day of fall, and West Reading is celebrating with its 20th annual fall festival.<\/p>\n

The festival started at 11 a.m. Saturday and will continue through 7 p.m., event organizers say.<\/p>\n

The event is located on the 400 to 700 blocks of Penn Avenue, and the streets surrounding this area are closed so festivalgoers can enjoy the event freely.<\/p>\n

West Reading Fall Festival showcases over 200 craft and retail vendors, including a wide array of food and beverage choices, and free live music on three stages.<\/p>\n

Free parking is located in the neighborhood. In addition, many public lots and limited handicapped parking is available at Kuhn’s Funeral Home at 8th and Penn Ave.<\/p>\n

The 2026 festival is sponsored by Masano Auto Group, Penn State Berks, and American Diner.<\/p>\n
