5 End Of October Weekend Events In SWFL

Many people in Fort Myers, Naples, Cape Coral and our barrier islands are still recovering from Hurricane Milton. However, many events that were postponed because of the storm are starting to take place now. Here are 5 end of October weekend events in SWFL that have a little something for everyone.

First, there are all kinds of additional Fall and Halloween themed events that have been ongoing but might not be listed here. Click here for a complete list of all of those seasonal activities. Just keep in mind the times may've changed so check individual websites and social media platforms to confirm before you leave the house.

In addition to Halloween activities, it's also the last weekend for Oktoberfest at the German American Social Club in Cape Coral. If you prefer Greek food, get your orders in for a pre-Greek fest event in Fort Myers. And in Naples, it's all about stone crabs. Scroll down for more on both events.

We will continue to update this list with cancellations due to Hurricane Milton cleanup and recovery.

If you still need help with cleanup, insurance or other information after Hurricane Milton, please check out the resources listed on our Hurricane Central site. It is full of good information both pre and post storm.
