The 2024 Pahrump Fall Festival was a magical four day event focused on bringing our community together to play, laugh and connect with one another.
There really is no better way to celebrate the Fall Equinox than with family, friends, funnel cakes and spinning around on the Tornado until your head hurts.
From a local mother’s perspective, I’d say the Town of Pahrump did an amazing job this year!
The hard work of every ride operator didn’t go unnoticed either. We appreciated how much patience and kindness was shown to all the children, even on the hottest days.
There are so many wonderful things we experienced and I’m excited to share a few of them with you.
Keep reading to find out what made the 2024 Pahrump Fall Festival truly magical for Our Family!
#1 The Carnival Rides
We attended the Pahrump Fall Festival on Friday evening to first check out all the awesome rides we could see from Highway 160.
There was a storm rolling through but thankfully it did not dampen our time. The beautiful sky was the perfect backdrop for some great pictures!
#2 Little Kids Area
The Carnival organizers put a lot of effort into making sure there was enough things for the younger attendees to enjoy.
To see the joy and smiles from all the children as they ran from the Fun House to the small Roller Coaster made the festival extra special.
Our son had been talking about wanting to go on his first roller coaster ride for MONTHS.
Imagine his excitement as he rode on the Pahrump Fall Festival’s miniature Roller Coaster for the first time.
It’s a memory we’ll always treasure as a family!
#3 The Amazing Festival Food
Let’s be honest, the food at a festival can be a deal breaker for most.
The 2024 Pahrump Fall Festival did not disappoint with all the options there were to choose from. Cotton Candy, Funnel Cakes, Lemonade, Tacos, Hot Dogs and Hamburgers were just a few we passed by.
We didn’t want to make a decision on what to splurge on until we saw all the options.
When our son saw the Pink Box Doughnuts’ truck, it was GAME ON!
His favorite doughnuts were the obvious choice despite being able to get one any other day of the week now that they’re located inside the Pahrump Nugget Hotel & Casino.
But who’s going to argue with a five year old?
Their Apple Fritters are my favorite!
#4 A Little Sparkle for Mom
A “Hello Pumpkin” t-shirt and an adorable photo backdrop stopped this mama in her tracks!
The ladies from Water Rock Designs, Desert Roots and Art from the Heart by Ashley did an amazing job with decorating their booth.
The gravitational pull to I felt to a specific t-shirt kept me from walking any further.
Tamara Trudeau from Water Rock Designs greeted us with her warm smile. She then offered me the choice to have the design put on any color t-shirt I’d like.
The design I chose I’ll keep as my little secret.
But, boy, is it sassy!
#5 The Art of Spinning
While we were checking out all the arts and crafts in the Bob Ruud Community Center, we came across a woman using her spinning wheel.
“Handspinning is the art of twisting fiber, fleece, or roving of wool and various natural fibers into a continuous thread/yarn.”
It’s the most mesmerizing form of art if you’ve ever experienced it in person. The process is extremely satisfying to watch!
Seeing her spin was simply just a delightful surprise.
#6 The Impressive Car Show
This one was hands down what my boys enjoyed the most about the Pahrump Fall Festival. Not only did they get to see so many cool vehicles but my son was also offered the chance to sit in some of them.
How cool is that?!
What We Didn’t Get to Experience
Unfortunately, we were not able to attend the Parade and Rodeo this year. We hope we’ll have the opportunity to experience the entirety of the 2025 Pahrump Fall Festival next year!
Our family is grateful to all of those who were a part of making the 2024 Pahrump Fall Festival truly a magical event.
