September 2026 Events in Pocatello, ID
Looking for things to do in Pocatello this September? This month is packed with local events, fall activities, live music, community favorites, and plenty of reasons to get out and enjoy Southeast Idaho.
A couple we’re especially excited about: the Historic Home Tour is September 19 from 10am–4pm, which is always such a fun way to see some of Pocatello’s history and incredible homes. And mark September 30 on your calendar because we’re hosting a Pint Night fundraiser at Jim Dandy! Proceeds will benefit our annual Foster Care Christmas Fundraiser, which helps us make Christmas a little more special for kids in foster care throughout our area. We’d LOVE to see you there.
Whether you’ve lived in Pocatello forever, recently moved to Southeast Idaho, or you’re considering making this area home, we put these calendars together every month to make it easier to find out what’s happening around town.
Here’s what’s happening in Pocatello and Southeast Idaho this September!
