Welcome back to the blog. The fall is, of course, the most popular time to come into Salem, so today I wanted to chat about my top three favorite things to do during that time. Now, keep in mind that this is entirely subjective. There are tons of other things to do in Salem in the fall, this list isn\u2019t all inclusive. It\u2019s just my personal opinion about my top three favs.<\/p>\n<p>Please also keep in mind the city of Salem is still currently dealing with phased reopenings during the Coronavirus pandemic, so items I mention below may not be happening in 2020. Pay attention to the calendars and social media. You can also click <a href=\"https:\/\/thingstodoinsalem.com\/index.php\/2020\/07\/20\/coronavirus-and-salem-ma-an-update\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a> to read an update as of July 2020.<\/p>\n<p>So without further delay, here we go.<\/p>\n<h3>The Haunted Biz Baz Street Fair and Essex Street Fair<\/h3>\n<p>Okay, I know the Essex Street Fair is in August which could be argued is the summer, but I am including both of these street fairs here in this blog post. The Haunted Biz Baz takes place in October. I absolutely love wandering both of these, checking out tons of handmade goods, supporting local businesses and scoring unique finds all at once.<\/p>\n<h3>Enjoy Salem\u2019s buskers and street performers<\/h3>\n<p>The streets come alive in the fall with Salem\u2019s beloved buskers and performers. I love wandering around and taking it all in, watching them interact with people. Seeing little kids reacting to Borah is always a personal favorite. \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/thingstodoinsalem.com\/index.php\/2019\/02\/20\/a-first-timers-guide-to-planning-a-trip-to-salem-ma\/\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11463\" src=\"http:\/\/thingstodoinsalem.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/first-timers-guide-to-salem-ma.jpg\" alt=\"things to do in salem, first timers guide to salem ma\" width=\"730\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thingstodoinsalem.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/first-timers-guide-to-salem-ma.jpg 730w, https:\/\/thingstodoinsalem.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/first-timers-guide-to-salem-ma-534x110.jpg 534w, https:\/\/thingstodoinsalem.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/first-timers-guide-to-salem-ma-300x62.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thingstodoinsalem.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/first-timers-guide-to-salem-ma-24x5.jpg 24w, https:\/\/thingstodoinsalem.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/first-timers-guide-to-salem-ma-36x7.jpg 36w, https:\/\/thingstodoinsalem.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/first-timers-guide-to-salem-ma-48x10.jpg 48w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Take it all in<\/h3>\n<p>This last item can come in a few different forms. My favorite ways to do this are the following\u2026<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Walking around on foot with my camera in hand<\/li>\n<li>Hopping the Salem Trolley and sight seeing on wheels<\/li>\n<li>Just simply walking around and popping my head into whatever shops and restaurants grab me at that moment<\/li>\n<li>Grabbing some food from a street vendor and parking myself on a bench at the Common to people watch<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It\u2019s entirely up to you. However, I would definitely suggest putting aside at least a little time to just enjoy the city and all is has to offer, without a tight schedule to stick to.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/thingstodoinsalem.com\/index.php\/2018\/03\/27\/100-things-to-do-in-salem-ma-in-the-fall\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">100 things to do in Salem, MA in the fall<\/a><\/p>\n<p>I hope this helped give you some ideas or spark some thoughts and I hope you have an amazing visit into the witch city.
