FALL FOR PAPILLION
Corner of 3rd & Jefferson | Saturday, September 26, 2026 | 9 AM – 12PM
Imagine being a family back in the 1800s...
You wake to the sound of roosters, pull on your boots, and head into town for a day filled with harvest fun, games, and community. That’s the spirit behind Fall for Papillion — a lively, family-friendly event that blends history, hands-on activities, and old-fashioned fun in the heart of downtown Papillion.
Hosted by the Papillion Area Historical Society and Papillion Public Library, this free celebration brings the past to life with interactive exhibits, prairie life demos, and good old-fashioned field games for all ages.
