Want something a little more grown-up? Don’t miss RBG After Dark (19+) on October 23 — same pumpkin magic, with an adult twist.
Accessibility note: About ¼ km of the trail (a loop within the garden) is wheelchair and stroller accessible. The rest includes uneven terrain, so bring a flashlight, wear sturdy shoes, and prepare for a bit of adventure — lit only by the flicker of hundreds of smiling pumpkins.
