Pumpkinville, presented by OG&E and sponsored by Devon Energy and Tinker Federal Credit Union, is one of the Myriad Botanical Gardens’ biggest annual festivals and a cherished fall tradition for thousands of families. Visitors can explore creative displays made from over 30,000 pumpkins, gourds, haystacks, and mums. Enjoy games, pumpkin painting, photo ops with pumpkin murals, shopping from local vendors, educational programs, free daily crafts, face painting, special treats, and unlimited rides on Mo’s Carousel with admission.

 

This year’s Pumpkinville theme is Mythical Creatures, bringing to life a magical world of legendary beings. Giants, Ogres, and Trolls dominate the landscape, while Bigfoot and the elusive Yeti wander the forests. Gnomes, Fairies, Pixies, and Sprites add a sprinkle of magic, with Unicorns, Goblins, and Dragons embodying the essence of fantasy. The skies are graced by Pegasus and the reborn Phoenix, while Gargoyles, the Loch Ness Monster, and the Kraken stir the imagination. Finally, Mermaids beckon from the sea, completing this enchanting world.

 

Admission is $9 per person, free for ages 2 and under, and free for Myriad Garden members. Members also receive early access to our exclusive preview event on Thursday, October 3.
Member levels and information can be found at www.myriadgardens.org/membership. Contact member@myriadgardens.org.

 

Pumpkinville is a fundraiser for the Myriad Gardens Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that partners with corporate and community groups to enhance the educational, aesthetic, cultural, and economic development of Oklahoma City.
