Pilot Point Festival Brings Movies, Music and Family Fun October 10

Pilot Point's historic square will become a gathering place for music, movie history and family activities during Bonnie & Clyde Days on Saturday, October 10, 2026.

The festival runs 2 to 9 p.m., giving corridor families an afternoon-and-evening outing with several ways to join the fun.

Hosted by the city's Main Street program, the event celebrates Pilot Point's connection to the filming of the classic movie Bonnie and Clyde.

Bank-robbery reenactments at the historic Farmers & Merchants Bank Building are scheduled for 2 p.m. and 3:15 p.m.

Families can also visit a free Kids Zone featuring an obstacle course, gaming truck, face painting and caricatures.

Craft booths and food vendors add opportunities to shop and eat between activities.
