Community Involvement Needed!

Get ready for a new and exciting attraction at the 2024 Chillicothe Halloween Festival (proudly sponsored by Nellie Dog Pottery) – the Pumpkin Pyramid! This awe-inspiring display will light up the night, showcasing the incredible creativity of our community through intricately carved and vibrantly painted pumpkins. But we need YOU to help make this the centerpiece of our festival!

​

How to Participate

There are two fun and easy ways to get involved in this year’s Pumpkin Pyramid:
 

1. Bring Your Own Pumpkin: Create your masterpiece at home and bring your carved or painted pumpkin to the festival. Show off your creativity and contribute to this stunning display! BRING YOUR OWN PUMPKIN ENTRY REGISTRATION.
    

2. Carve at the Festival: Don’t have a pumpkin? No problem! We’ve got a limited number of pumpkins available for free on Friday, October 11th. Sign up early to reserve yours, as supplies are limited! (Pre-registration is required). CLAIM A FREE PUMPKIN AND CARVING TIME.
    

All pumpkins will be featured in our Pumpkin Pyramid, which will be illuminated each night of the festival, adding a magical glow to the Halloween festivities.
