New digital guide puts rides, food booths, entertainment, Half Pot information and more at festival-goers' fingertips
The West Side Nut Club is bringing the Fall Festival experience into the digital age with the launch of a new mobile app designed to help festival-goers find the information they need before and during one of Evansville's most anticipated annual traditions.
The new West Side Nut Club Fall Festival app serves as a convenient, all-in-one resource for visitors, putting essential festival information right on their smartphones. From finding favorite food booths and checking out rides to keeping up with nightly entertainment and important Half-Pot information, the app is designed to make navigating the festival easier and it is completely free. No paywall, no “unlock” fees, no in-app purchases.
"We are excited to offer festival-goers another way to experience the Fall Festival," said Ryan Beck, 2026 West Side Nut Club Fall Festival Chair. "With so much happening throughout festival week, having important information available in one convenient place will help visitors make the most of their time on Franklin Street."
The app is especially helpful for returning festival visitors who have favorite foods, rides or entertainment they do not want to miss, as well as first-time guests looking for an easy way to learn their way around the fall festival.
The 2026 West Side Nut Club Fall Festival is scheduled for October 5th–10th along West Franklin Street in Evansville. The festival continues a tradition dating back more than a century, featuring more than 130 food booths, carnival rides, live entertainment, family activities, talent competitions and other special events.
The new app complements the festival's traditional maps, schedules and printed information while giving visitors a convenient digital option they can carry with them throughout the week.
