Autumn in Exeter

As we usher in a changing of the seasons, autumn is a time to embrace and celebrate the wonderful array of events and activities taking place across our city. Whether it's a day visit, autumnal weekend break for a little escapism or you plan on staying a little longer, visit Exeter for a truly memorable experience this autumn season.

The end of October is half-term, with lots of spooky and fiendishly fun activities for Halloween in Exeter. Pick up a free pumpkin and enjoy Devon's award-winning theme park with Halloween at Crealy, dare you explore Exeter's Underground Passages, join a Ghosts & Legends tour with our Red Coat Guides and lots of other family friendly attractions to scare you silly this Halloween.

Remember, remember the 5th November as the skies of Exeter will be lit up by firework displays across the city and surrounding area. Fun for all the family, one of the biggest and most popular displays will take place at Westpoint Exeter so be sure to book early. Many of our favourite attractions will also be hosting firework displays so keep a look out as we update this page.

The build up to Christmas officially begins with the arrival of the popular Exeter Cathedral Christmas Market, from 15th November to 15th December. Wonderfully atmospheric and set among a labyrinth of winding paths, the seasonal sights and smells of festive chalets will help get you in the festive mood.
