Pumpkin Picking at Cannon Hall Farm - October 12 to October 31

Cannon Hall Farm’s incredible pumpkin patch is returning this October – and is full of instagrammable family moments.

The patch – which was voted the no 1 patch to visit in the UK in a study by Austen and Blake in 2023 – sees almost 10,000 pumpkins available for visitors to pick and our expert carvers will shape out those toothy grins for you.

As well as amazing outdoor and indoor playgrounds and animal talks, our pumpkin patch is the perfect place for you to capture those insta-worthy pictures. 

Children who have a paid ticket are entitled to one free pumpkin each (no matter how big it is) and will be allocated a token on arrival.

Visitors are also encouraged to wear fancy dress – and spot prizes will be offered by farm staff to those who have made a special effort. Don’t forget our carvers will also be happy to help create your lantern by carving it for you. And for even more fun, the kids are given a spooky quiz sheet which they can trade for a treat from our friendly witch.

EXTRAS: New for 2024! Jump on the VR Spooky Halloween Pumpkin Ride. A spooky surprise of Halloween fun. Join us for a 360 adventure as the Halloween train tilts, forwards, backwards and side to side with VR headsets creating an adventure full of petrifying (not really) pumpkins, ghouls and scarecrows. Suitable for all ages. Children age 12 and under must be accompanied by an adult with a ride ticket. Tickets are £5 per person and are available online.

Important information:

* Extra Pumpkins – To make it easier on you and our team, if you need any extra pumpkins or pumpkins for the adults in your group please try to buy these online when you purchase your online tickets.

* Fancy Dress – Fancy dress is welcomed and we will be handing out spot prizes on the day for those who make the best effort. However, please do bring a change of clothes for the play equipment to make sure you stay safe.

Pumpkin Picking runs until October 31. Our last arrival, to ensure you have plenty of time to experience the event, is 2.30pm each day.

Tickets include all day admission to the farm, outdoor adventure play and indoor soft play, sheep and ferret racing, animal talks and our reptile and mammal house.
