6 Fun Things To Do This Weekend In Bucks County

BUCKS COUNTY, PA — As we roll into October, the weather gets a little crisper and the leaves begin to change.

While the remnants of a hurricane may wreak havoc on events scheduled for Sunday, the Philadelphia Eagles will be playing in London early that morning, just in case you want to get out and hit the bars for breakfast.

Meanwhile, there's a steady stream of autumn staples on Saturday to keep you busy, from Octoberfeast at Peddler’s Village, McConkey’s Market in Washington Crossing, and Porchfest in Langhorne.

Here are some of the events planned for this weekend in Bucks County:
