This incredible exhibit will give you pumpkin to talk about this spooky season! Pumpkinferno is a world where jack-o-lanterns come to life under the starry sky.

This spellbinding event has gotten multiple awards and has become a beloved tradition every fall.

Located at Upper Canada Village, this after-dark tour will transport you to a realm where over 7,000 artistically designed and hand-carved pumpkins illuminate the historic landscape.

As you wander through the cobblestone streets and winding paths of Upper Canada Village, you’ll be enchanted by the mesmerizing displays of meticulously carved gourds.

“Take a stroll under the stars and marvel at the eclectic display of scenes from exotic places and historic ages, to fauna and ora, and creatures of the night,” the description says.

To keep things fresh and exciting, Pumpkinferno gets a makeover every year.

The creative minds behind this event work tirelessly during the spring and summer months to create brand-new exhibits every year.

That means every year, you can expect fresh surprises and additions to the already spectacular displays.
