Fall In Love With QC Autumn Colors

You haven’t truly experienced the beauty of fall colors until you’ve sailed down the Mississippi River with brilliant red, orange, and gold leaves lining the banks. Take a cruise on our QC riverboats and enjoy dinner and live music while you’re aboard too.

The fall harvest fills our farmers’ markets and makes it the best time to stroll through Freight House Farmers’ Market for seasonal vegetables, flowers, pumpkins, local crafts, and sweet treats. Experience a farmers’ market with Latin flair every Friday at Mercado on Fifth. Enjoy food trucks, local vendors, and plenty of live music and dancing at this farmers’ market in downtown Moline.

Fall in the Quad Cities hosts an exciting variety of events like the Quad Cities Marathon, Beaux Arts Fair, Quad City Botanical Center’s Pumpkin Extravaganza, and Apple Fest in LeClaire.

All this makes autumn the perfect time to fall in love with the QC.
