Toronto Pumpkinfest
Fall is in the air, and that means Toronto festivals have just gotten a lot more pumpkin spicy, including this seasonal treat in the north end.
Bringing the fall harvest fun to Downsview Park, Toronto Pumpkinfest is set to be ripe with autumnal vibes. Returning with four days of midway rides, food trucks, bouncy castles, and more.
Taking place on the Thanksgiving long weekend, Oct. 10 to 13, Pumpkinfest will be packed with activities like live performances and is also filled with a ton of cute fall photo-ops.
Unlimited midway rides will be running all weekend long, like the strawberry-themed merry-go-round and carnival festival wheel. Additionally, there will be inflatables, including a corn maze and a mechanical bull.
Known for its unique decorations and adorable art, Toronto Pumpkinfest boasts numerous Instagram-worthy spots. Whether you’re posing by the pumpkin wall, giant teddy bear, or sitting on top of a tractor, get ready to say cheese.
The real treat is a visit to the food truck zone, where hot and delicious eats are waiting to fill bellies. You can also visit the pumpkin patch and pick up some pumpkins for Halloween, all without leaving the city.
For 2025, Toronto Pumpkinfest offers several new ticket options, including expanded access to kids’ activities such as jumping castles, rock walls, and obstacle courses.
If you’re looking for the classic experience, purchase an Adult Admission, which includes admission to the festival, access to the pumpkin patch, live stage shows and entertainment, and photo-ops. Tickets start at $20 and all include access to midway games; dogs are also welcome at the festival.
Guaranteed to be bursting with that classic fall feeling, you can save $5 on your ticket if you purchase tickets to Toronto Pumpkin Fest before Oct. 9.
