BID Blast Carnival Returns to Hackettstown

Rides, games and food will be available to Blast attendees.

The Hackettstown Business Improvement District (BID) is gearing up for a weekend of fun with its second annual BID Blast Carnival next month.

The carnival will be held from Sept. 27 through Sept. 29 at the American Legion on Willow Grove Street. Attendees will be able to enjoy carnival rides, games and food.

“The Fall Carnival gives our community the chance to enjoy one last bit of fun event before winter sets in," BID Executive Director Jim Sheldon said. "It gives those families that did not have the opportunity to go to an amusement park a chance to enjoy the rides and the carnival fun.”

Advanced tickets will be sold in local businesses while regular tickets will be available the days of the Blast. Sept. 27 hours will be 6 p.m. to 10 p.m.; Sept. 28 will be open noon to 10 p.m. and Sept. 20, the Blast will be held from noon to 5 p.m.
