Top Things to Do in Kearney This Fall 2025

Fall is one of the best times of year in Nebraska — cooler weather, football season, and plenty of reasons to get out with friends. If you’re looking for fun things to do in Kearney this fall, here are a few can’t-miss options:

1. Axe Throwing at Axe Holes Kearney 🎯

Axe throwing is the perfect way to break up the routine and try something new. It’s active, social, and a little competitive — which makes it great for groups, date nights, or even a solo night out. Plus, it’s all indoors, so you can enjoy it no matter what the weather is doing.

2. Splatter Paint at Axe Holes Kearney 🎨

If throwing sharp objects isn’t your thing, splatter paint is another unique way to spend an evening. You’ll get a canvas, protective gear, and all the paint you need to let loose. It’s messy, creative, and you leave with a one-of-a-kind masterpiece to take home.

3. Grab a Drink at Upper Room Brewery 🍻

Local craft beer fans love Upper Room Brewery, and fall is the perfect season to sample their seasonal brews. Whether you’re into IPAs, stouts, or something in between, it’s a cozy spot to relax with friends after work or on a weekend.

4. Shop for Seasonal Plants at The Rooted Plant Company 🌿

Fall is a great time to bring a little greenery into your home or office. The Rooted Plant Company has a wide selection of seasonal plants and unique décor that make perfect gifts — or a treat for yourself.

5. Enjoy the Fall Colors at Cottonmill Park 🍁

If you want a classic fall activity, take a stroll through Cottonmill Park to enjoy the crisp air and colorful leaves. It’s one of Kearney’s best spots to take in the season.
