Experience the magic of autumn at the newly re-imagined Fall Fudge Festival on Mackinac Island, taking place October 2-4.
This year’s festival blends the island’s iconic fudge with fall-themed festivities sure to delight the biggest fall and fudge fanatics. Wander the charming streets lined with fall decor, enjoy scenic bike rides through vibrant foliage, and savor the sweet flavors that make Mackinac Island famous.
Whether you’re a fudge foodie or simply looking for a cozy fall getaway, this weekend promises unforgettable memories.
For more than a century, Mackinac Island’s fudge has been an institution that’s become famous worldwide. Fudge devotees are known as “fudgies” – a term that is also synonymous with Northern Michigan tourists. Most people don’t need an excuse to indulge in a piece or two of creamy, decadent fudge.
Join us Friday, October 3 to Sunday, October 5, as we celebrate a trio of milestones: The 35th anniversary of our iconic Somewhere in Time Weekend, the 45th anniversary of the movie “Somewhere in Time” that was filmed at Grand Hotel, and the 50th anniversary of the novel the movie was based on, “Bid Time Return.”
To add to the excitement of this special occasion actress Jane Seymour, who starred as Elise McKenna in the movie, may be joining the event and returning to the historic setting at Grand Hotel where the beloved movie was filmed! Enjoy a weekend of nostalgic events, themed activities, and a chance to meet Jane Seymour herself as we honor the legacy of timeless love.
Consider reserving a stay for Thursday evening as well for additional Somewhere in Time events and another chance to enjoy the beloved movie along with guests who love the movie just as much as you do.
