Falling for Autumn: A Few of Fall’s Favorite Things…

Posted by MPM Leave a Comment

As summer waves its warm goodbye and fall starts to make its grand entrance in the Lowcountry, magic is in the air. The sweltering heat gives way to crisp, cool breezes, and the air is suddenly filled with the tantalizing scents of pumpkin spice and apple cider.

Kids can’t wait to swap their swimsuits for costumes and dive into a sea of candy. Likewise, adults are decorating pumpkins and sipping spiced lattes. This fall, we’ve put together a delightful mix of must-dos to make the most of the season, so grab a pumpkin spice latte and let’s explore all the fun waiting for you.

Dress The Part

Children's Day FestivalFall in the Lowcountry is a haven of family fun, especially if you’re in Mount Pleasant. The town pulls out all the stops with events that will make your little ones’ eyes light up. Start with the 35th Annual Children’s Day Festival on Oct. 20 at Park West Recreation Complex — think carnival games, giant slides, live entertainment and free admission. If you’re in the mood for a spooky good time, join the Halloween festivities at the G.M. Darby Building lawn on Oct. 22. Then, get ready for Trunk or Treat at Carolina Park Recreation Complex on Oct. 25, where kids can enjoy trick-or-treating, a petting zoo and even train rides. Don’t miss the annual Fall Festival at Mount Pleasant Towne Centre on Oct. 26, and for a pumpkin-packed adventure, head over to Boone Hall’s Pumpkin Patch every weekend from Sept. 27 to Oct. 27. With so many fun options, your fall calendar is about to get a whole lot busier.

Get Spooky

For a spine-chilling adventure, head over to Fright Nights at Boone Hall, South Carolina’s largest multi-attraction haunted event, where the scares are as legendary as the venue itself. Or, if you’re up for something equally exhilarating but with a touch of history, book a Ghost Tour aboard the USS Yorktown. You’ll explore the eerie flight deck after dark and hear stories of the American heroes who once roamed these decks.

Get Groovy

This fall, we’re in for a treat with a lineup of fantastic shows to catch in and around town. Every Thursday in October, head over to Towne Centre for Live Under the Oaks at 6 p.m. — perfect for enjoying some great tunes in a relaxed, outdoor setting. If you’re craving something a bit more high-energy, Credit One is bringing in some big names like Dierks Bentley, Jon Pardi, Cody Johnson and Post Malone this season. So, whether you’re in the mood for a laidback evening of music or an electrifying concert, there are plenty of opportunities to enjoy live entertainment and make the most of the season.

Shop Til You Drop

For me, the first thing I always pick up is a seasonal candle from Oyster Candle Company. Their scents, like ‘Coastal Harvest’ and ‘Apple Cider Donuts,’ instantly infuse your home with the essence of the season, creating that cozy, autumnal ambiance right from the start.

When it comes to updating your seasonal wardrobe, Towne Centre is a great place to begin. And don’t miss Copper Penny and Mulberry & King — these spots have fantastic selections that will keep you stylish and on-trend.

For giving your home décor a fresh look, Modern Manor has you covered. They offer a range of stylish and chic pieces that make sprucing up your space a breeze. Whether you’re setting the mood with a new candle, finding the perfect fall outfit or updating your home, these local gems have everything you need to embrace the season in style.

Enjoy Every Sip

Pumpkin Spice drinksLet’s be honest, fall just wouldn’t be the same without our favorite seasonal sips. Whether you’re a diehard pumpkin spice fan or someone who swears by a chai tea latte, there’s something undeniably comforting about enjoying a warm, inviting drink as the temperatures drop. This season, make sure you’re sipping in style while supporting our fantastic local coffee spots like Brown Fox Coffee, Owlbear Cafe, Metto Coffee & Tea and Vintage Coffee Cafe. So, grab your favorite fall drink and enjoy the season while celebrating the incredible coffee culture here in Mount Pleasant.

As we embrace the crisp air and vibrant colors of fall in the Lowcountry, it’s clear that this season offers something special for everyone. Whether you’re savoring the seasonal flavors at local coffee shops or enjoying live music under the oaks, there’s a whole world of autumnal delights waiting for you. Here’s to a fall filled with laughter, excitement and unforgettable moments.
