The Great Pumpkin Race is a unique side-by-side, single-elimination race featuring handcrafted, decorated pumpkin race cars, in a madcap, dramatic explosion of creative ingenuity. The referee rules the race, building excitement as registered pumpkin race car owners compete for the Pumpkin Race Championship Trophy.

Add wheels to your custom-decorated pumpkin and face off against friends, neighbors or family in single-elimination race heats. Pumpkin racers may collide, veer off course or have the perfect run—whoever crosses the finish line first moves on!

The Pumpkin Race caps off the Fall Festival events, which include live music, great food and plenty of children’s activities during this family-centered day.
