Will be on a driving vacation from Oct 3rd through Oct 9th in New England. Do you have any recommendations for local festivals that we can take in?

Yes that week you MUST visit the Topsfield Fair, in Topsfield MA.. gotta rent a car to get there. .but its worth it..
AND , on your way back from the fair, stop by the famous northshore city of Salem MA.. october is the month where Salem conducts "Haunted Happenings", the whole month is filled with tourists visiting haunted houses, taking city tours, see where the witches were tried, hanged, and see their graves in the cemetery, check out Nathaniel Hawthorne's famous House of the 7 Gables. etc.. really fun city in October!!!

Armistice Day (Veteran's Day in united states of america) many times is marked via a few ceremonies. while you're American, British, Canadian, the elderly veterans would be somewhat heat to you. In Sept., in Lille, there is la Braderie. distinctive the food stands are ok, yet imho, it somewhat is an incredible variety of hype for what's largely a storage sale of previous shoes, home equipment that would or would possibly not artwork (the understanding on the line is do not purchase em). distinctive the stuff might properly be bought new for much less funds. the shops in downtown Lille might have stunning issues for Christmas (although Christmas is way less commercialized than interior the U. S.) and you will discover delicious yuletide log cakes interior the bakeries.

Go to the Fryeburg fair in Maine (state fair), lots of fun if you like farm animals, crafts, amusement rides, food, harness racing, etc.
