About this adventure
Located right on the sand at Mission Beach, historic Belmont Park celebrates the Thanksgiving season with its seaside Fall Harvest Festival. Against the backdrop of the iconic 1925 Giant Dipper wooden roller coaster and the vintage Liberty Carousel, the boardwalk is decked out in harvest hay bales, cornstalks, and giant pumpkin photo displays. Families can enjoy trick-free seasonal scavenger hunts, face painting, live acoustic music on the boardwalk stage, and autumn fair foods like warm apple cider donuts, funnel cakes, and loaded turkey sandwiches. Between rides and boardwalk mini-golf, kids can build sandcastles right steps away on the beach.
