Havana’s Annual Pumpkin Festival – October 18, 2008

The annual Pumpkin Festival is Havana’s signature event and the perfect way to celebrate the beautiful fall season. Streets are lined with art, crafts, and food vendors selling their wares. The town comes alive in a carnival-like atmosphere full of activities for the entire family: hay rides, pony & carriage rides, costume contests, live auction, face-painting, magicians, pumpkin decorating and much, much more. Local merchants show their creativity with beautiful displays of pumpkins, Halloween and fall décor.

Visit the uniquely-decorated “pumpkin patch” where you can purchase that perfect pumpkin…and hear an old fashioned yarn told by the mesmerizing storyteller! Pumpkin festival proceeds, in part, benefit Native Americans & Big Bend Hospice.

Getting into the holiday spirit has never been more fun! How creative can you be in decorating your riding lawn mower like a parade float? Let your imagination run wild!
