Downtown, Havana, Florida

The annual Pumpkin Festival is Havana’s signature event and the perfect way to celebrate the beautiful fall season. Streets are lined with art, crafts, and food vendors selling their wares. The town comes alive in a carnival-like atmosphere full of activities for the entire family: hay rides, pony & carriage rides, costume contests, live auction, face-painting, magicians, pumpkin decorating and much, much more. Local merchants show their creativity with beautiful displays of pumpkins, Halloween and fall décor.

Visit the uniquely-decorated "pumpkin patch" where you can purchase that perfect pumpkin…and hear an old fashioned yarn told by the mesmerizing storyteller! Pumpkin festival proceeds, in part, benefit Native Americans & Big Bend Hospice. Free

Address: 3945 Museum Drive

The goblins and ghosts will be out, lurking around the grounds at the Tallahassee Museum. For the younger children we have a less frightening "children’s" trail as well as tricks and treats on our 1880s farmstead, carnival-type games throughout the grounds, costume contests and much, much more. There’s a haunted trail for younger goblins and the Museum’s famous haunted trail for veterans ghouls where a surprise lurks around each turn. This family event is a haunting, howling good time with its haunted trails for adults and children, tricks and treats, live music and things that go bump in the night. Fee
