Fall Fest, an annual community celebration established in 2019 by the late Regina Luckett, a long-time Englewood resident and mother of Corie Luckett, owner and operator of Englewood Branded & Branded Englewood. Fall Fest was created with a vision to restore hope in the Englewood community by transforming vacant lots into a vibrant space filled with a pumpkin patch, carnival rides, and various festivities.

In its first year, the event attracted 400 attendees, with 300 pumpkins distributed and an inflatable haunted house. By 2020, despite the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, Fall Fest expanded to include 750 pumpkins, more carnival rides, youth entertainment, and support from local entrepreneurs, driving increased attendance. Over the past five years, the event has become a cornerstone of community connection, engaging more than 7,000 people.

Held at the Englewood Branded Flagship store, just east of 63rd and Justine, Fall Fest is free and open to all ages. It offers a wide range of activities, including youth entertainment, local vendors, free food, live music, a petting zoo, and more. It has also become a safe, family-friendly space that provides the community with tangible opportunities and helps deter crime in Englewood.

In addition to fun and entertainment, Fall Fest provides children and families with memorable, violence-free experiences and valuable resources to support family growth and development. Your support will help us continue to grow this impactful event and foster a stronger, more resilient community.
