About kids’ events in Bangor

Bangor is Stephen King's hometown, and the Paul Bunyan statue on Main Street marks its lumber-port past. The Maine Discovery Museum, the Bangor Waterfront concerts and the Fields Pond Audubon Center a few miles out are the family regulars, with Acadia National Park an hour away. Bangor Public Library was rebuilt in 2016 and is the region's largest.

Holiday events for kids in Bangor, 2026: tree lightings, light displays, Santa visits and gingerbread workshops, day by day.

5 children’s events are on in Bangor in the next seven days, read every night from the calendars of Bangor Public Library (7 branches, 52 upcoming programmes), plus Fields Pond Audubon Center. Library programmes are free. Museum and zoo events say “admission may apply”; check the venue for prices.
