barry apple festival

Even though COVID continues to be a concern for many, there are a number of things going on around northeast Missouri and western Illinois this weekend.

Another always-anticipated area festival has been forced to cancel due to COVID-19.

The 46th annual Barry Apple Festival was held Thursday, October 1 through Sunday, October 4 in Barry, Illinois. The Barry Apple Festival is one of the region's most popular fall traditions, drawing thousands of visitors to the small Pike County community.

This is the season for small town festivals all around northeast Missouri and western Illinois. All the communities that stage such get togethers do a fine job.

The month of October is filled with kids in costumes, adults in costumes, lots of candy, pumpkins, and even a few of the year's biggest events! Here's a look at fun things to do around the Quincy/Hannibal area in October 2015.
