Walk for Wishes: A Sleepy Hollow Family Fun Fall Festival returns on October 25, 2026, transforming the historic village into a heartwarming, Halloween-themed celebration for all ages.
We will be celebrating our 40th Anniversary as a chapter and our 20th Anniversary of Walk for Wishes!
This family-friendly fundraiser brings together wish families, volunteers, sponsors, and the community to raise vital funds for children with critical illnesses – all set against the enchanting backdrop of Sleepy Hollow.
Enjoy a scenic stroll along the Hudson River’s River Walk, interactive photo ops, a legendary glass pumpkin patch, live music, food trucks, games, costume contests (pets included!), face painting, crafts, and more. Perfect for locals and visitors alike, the festival pairs perfectly with a visit to Sleepy Hollow’s famous haunts. Walk for Wishes is more than a fun fall day – it’s a chance to make a difference. Join us for an unforgettable experience where autumn magic meets meaningful impact.
