It’s true, the summer crowds have gone, the days are milder, the humidity has gone, and the nights are cooler. But with everything open and so much to do, the Cape is full of interesting autumn events, concerts and festivals and we’ve highlighted a couple of our favorite events below.

And let’s not forget the wonderful beach walks (Rock Harbor, the picture above taken this week), plus the never-ending bike trails, great restaurants and those amazing sunsets. 

THE OUTERMOST ROOTS & BLUES FESTIVAL, OCT 12th and 13th

An idyllic setting at Nauset Beach, G Love and Special Sauce headline the event that’s a celebration of national and local music artists along with locally crafter beers and wine. An autumn event not to be missed! Click here for details and tickets
