Skippack Days
Skippack Days is Skippack's annual fall event, and it runs Saturday, October 3 and Sunday, October 4, 2026, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. both days. Arts and crafts vendors and food are set up throughout the entire village, which sits on Skippack Pike (Route 73, between Routes 113 and 363), so plan on walking the whole village. Rain or shine; the village's standing rule is no rain dates unless an event page says otherwise. Parking is the village lots near the shops and restaurants. The village says it is normally free, though a few lots may charge a small fee during major events, so look for the posted signs on the day. No admission price is posted. The same group that runs SpringFest, the car shows and the Fourth of July parade runs this one; questions go to 610.584.6004. The setting does half the work: most of the shops sit in renovated 18th and 19th century buildings, homes and barns, all locally owned, and the village calls this weekend its signature event. Plan a lunch stop, and note most shops close at 5 while the event runs to 6. The village calendar says all dates and times are subject to change, so check once before you leave.
