Fall Festival and Steam Show
SPECIAL / SEASONAL EVENT — Check current event dates before visiting. This review is excluded from regular random picks.
I went to the Fall Festival and Steam Show in Jacksonville with my family, and it was a really cool day. The caramel apple lemonade shake-up and strawberry cheesecake cinnamon-sugar mini donuts were some of my favorites, and they had good BBQ too. We got to pet and feed animals and see a lot of antique equipment. There were tractors everywhere, some over 100 years old. Admission was $10 per person when we went, and food could get a little pricey depending on what and how much you bought. For the overall event experience, this gets a 10/10 from me.
