Celebrate America’s 250th with Fallon’s Sweetest Community Event

Join us for the Fallon Cake Picnic — a festive evening of cakes, community, and live music at Oats Park. After the picnic, stay for a free performance by Micky and the Motorcars, adding a lively alt‑country soundtrack to the celebration. Bring a cake to share or come taste creations from local bakers as part of Fallon’s official America 250 programming.

Entry is free when you bring a cake! Each cake covers admission for up to four people. General admission is $10 for tasters. All ages are welcome to enjoy the picnic, sample the cakes, and stay for the evening concert.
