The event's theme for 2016 is "Embrace Autumn's Glory"? and the fairgrounds will be transformed by pumpkins, scarecrows, gourds, cornstalks and hundreds of colorful mums. The South Jersey Pumpkin Show festival was picked by Fodor's Travel as one of America's Best Pumpkin Festivals for 2014 and 2015.
Pumpkin growers and backyard gardeners from any state are being invited to bring their heaviest pumpkin out to the Pumpkin Show Big Pumpkin Weigh Off on Sunday, October 9th, at noon. If you're a pumpkin grower this is a great late season opportunity to show off your prize pumpkin and potentially win a portion of the prize money up for grabs.
Festival goers visiting this year will enjoy pumpkin desserts, rows and rows of craftsmen, Fall Home & Garden, Farm Expo, fun contests, scarecrows, give-a-ways, Pumpkin Toss, live bands, wine sampling, festival food court, NJ Largest Baked Pumpkin Pie, pony rides and haunted hayrides around the fairgrounds.
The Pumpkin Show will feature the reading of Sleepy Hollow legend and the arrival of the Headless Horsemen on Friday & Saturday at the graveyard.
The giant pumpkin pyramid that holds over 500 pumpkins and mums will be showcased as the center piece of the festival. Kids under ten will enjoy a friendly boo barn, amusement rides, free pumpkins, craft making, trick or treating on Friday night, kids straw garden and Halloween treat bags.
