Since 2001 we have been having our annual Pumpkinfest; the most pumpkin filled day around!
With your help, we have raised over $275,000 for local programs such as the REAL Program and Mount Pearl Sport Alliance.
Instead of a one jammed pack day, our Pumpkinfest will be spread throughout the entire month of October.
A portion of the proceeds go towards helping others in our community through community charities.
Our twenty fourth annual Pumpkinfest will be on weekends throughout September 28-October 27 from 10:00 - 5:00, as long as the weather cooperates.
Pumpkinfest is held in our Field of Fun where, once admission is paid, you'll have hours of fun! Attractions which you'll enjoy are our corn maze, wagon rides, fall props and displays, petting barn, giant slide, barnyard croquet, rubber duck races, other mazes and games and more!
We also have add on attractions such as our Pumpkin Jump Pad (for ages 2-12, $3 per jump stamp), and our Gem Mining (all ages! $4 per gem bag)
We have an extra special day on October 19 as proceeds from this day are donated to the REAL Program and Mount Pearl Sport Alliance. Since 2001 we have donated over $300,000 and have helped over 1000 families with your help!
