More than 10,000 pumpkins are coming back to the Delaware River waterfront this fall.
Cityside Pumpkin Patch returns to Liberty Point at Penn’s Landing on Oct. 1, bringing a month of Halloween decorations, fall activities and pumpkin-filled photo spots to the waterfront venue.
The seasonal attraction runs through Nov. 1 and gives visitors a more urban alternative to driving out to a farm. Along with walking through the patch, attendees can try the Pumpkin Smashing Zone, Scarecrow Archery, the Pool of Pumpkins and carnival games.
There’s also a more grown-up side to the experience. Fall cocktails, seasonal treats and other food and drinks will be available throughout the run, while pumpkins are included with select ticket packages and can also be purchased separately to take home.
