Happy Haunting

Sunday, October 28, 2018 at 12 PM – 3 PM

Happy Haunting will again be held on Sunday! Come into Edgartown for continued Halloween fun, while little ghosts and goblins trick-or-treat from business to business. And while collecting your treats from downtown businesses, children should stop by Backwater Trading Company to enter the 6th Annual Costume Contest. And because dogs wear costumes too, Boneyard Surf Shop will be hosting a Dog Costume Contest! Don’t forget Halloween at The Carnegie is happening as well, where they will have more tricks or treats and an eerie jack-o-lantern display on Sunday afternoon.

MV Nantucket Football Game

Saturday, November 17, 2018 at 1:30 PM

The biggest Football game of the year (on Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket). The rivalry continues. For over 50 years, the Football teams from both Islands have battled each other in order to hoist the coveted Island Cup. The winner comes home to the sound of fire engine sirens and crowds of jubilant crowds cheering the victors. The losers must wait another year to avenge their bitter defeat. This year will be even more sweet because of the cancellation of the 2017 Island Cup.

So continues the rivalry.
