El Paso’s Teentober Fest Is the Ultimate Fall Party for Teens!

If you’ve been looking for a sign to get off the couch and do something actually fun this fall, this is it. The El Paso Public Libraries are turning up the lights (literally) for Lights On Afterschool at Teentober Fest — and it’s about to be the glowiest, spookiest, and most epic Saturday night of the season.

This free event is stacked with everything teens (and let’s be honest, anyone with a pulse) could want: food trucks, a gaming truck, glowsticks, and a photo booth for those Instagram-worthy moments. Feeling competitive? Show off your creativity in the cosplay contest or take your courage for a spin through the haunted house.

There’s also live music, Lucha League wrestling, and tons of giveaways—so yes, there’s a 100% chance you’ll go home with something cool.

It’s all about celebrating afterschool programs that help teens stay inspired, connected, and lit (in every sense of the word). So grab your friends, charge your phone, and prepare to make your Saturday night glow.
