BROOKLYN — Brooklyn Botanic Garden’s Fall Harvest Festival is scheduled for Saturday, October 24, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Eastern, with last entry at 4:30 p.m. The official program combines live music, family activities and performances rooted in community traditions.
The listed lineup includes the Swiftly Tilting Planet featuring Rashad Brown, Haitian and Afro-Venezuelan performances, and a costume parade. These are the organizer’s scheduled activities; this report is not an eyewitness account of performances already completed.
Know the cost before heading out
Adult admission is listed at $38, while children younger than 12 enter free. The event is ticketed, so families should confirm availability and entry arrangements through the Garden before traveling.
An event can offer a shared afternoon without being equally affordable for every household. Checking the entire outing’s cost—including transportation and any purchases once inside—helps families decide what fits their plans.
For TalkLife’s Brooklyn audience, the program is also an opportunity to encounter several musical and cultural traditions in one setting. That connection is a useful starting point for conversations about how public cultural events introduce younger listeners to live performance.
All event times above are Eastern. The published schedule and ticket listing remain the appropriate sources for last-minute planning; social posts shared later in the day should retain the date and closing time.
