Prairie Gardens Haunted Pumpkin Festival

Haunted Pumpkin Festival at Prairie Gardens

This October, it’s time to get out of the city! It’s Haunted Pumpkin Festival time at Prairie Gardens Adventure Farm, and there’s no better way to celebrate the beauty of fall and the spookiness of Halloween than at the pumpkin patch on a farm.

Prairie Gardens is a working 35-acre family farm just 25 minutes north of Edmonton, providing local, healthy food and good, old-fashioned fun. They plant and sell over 15 acres of u-pick pumpkins of every size, colour, and shape imaginable. It’s the perfect place for families to play together with plenty of farm fun activities, fresh air, and fantastic fall photo ops!

Haunted Pumpkin Festival

Move over Christmas – Prairie Gardens and Adventure Farm has spent the last 30+ years celebrating fall as the most wonderful time of the year! The annual Haunted Pumpkin Festival returns for October 2026, with weekends full of spooky (but not scary!) family fun. Explore the humongous pumpkin patch, hop aboard a train or wagon ride, meet friendly farm animals, and find your way through the NEW spooky scarecrow maze. Kids will love the bale mazes, playgrounds, Pumpkin Corn-i-val filled with pumpkin-themed games, and seasonal activities like scarecrow-making, where each family can create a scarecrow to take home! There’s also plenty of fun with goat snuggles, sheep cuddles, pumpkin houses, and bale jumps!

Of course, you don’t want to forget the Halloween excitement! Explore the Ghost Town of Boo’n Accord, visit the Haunted House, and discover spooky attractions that are just right for the whole family. With plenty of pumpkins and festive activities, it’s the perfect way to celebrate the Halloween season together!

As an added bonus, every general admission ticket includes a $5 voucher to spend on extras like gem mining, pumpkin painting, delicious fall treats, pumpkins, souvenirs, and more!
