## 60 Years of Community Magic
The Seymour Pumpkin Festival
Get ready to celebrate a diamond milestone! The 60th Annual Seymour Pumpkin
Festival is here, transforming French Memorial Park into a spectacular autumn
wonderland bursting with color, creativity, and community pride.
What began in 1965 as a modest harvest celebration organized by the Seymour
Garden Club has grown into one of Connecticut's most cherished fall
traditions. Originally created to celebrate the season and raise funds for
community beautification, the festival has blossomed into a regional favorite
that draws thousands each year - all while keeping its warm, hometown charm.
About
For six decades, this volunteer-powered event has proven that when a community
comes together, incredible things happen. Generations of families have made
memories here - from wide-eyed first costume contests to proudly watching
local students crowned Pumpkin King and Queen.
### What's Happening at Our Diamond Anniversary?
There's truly something for every "pumpkin" in the patch!
### Arts & Crafts Extravaganza
Browse over 150 juried vendors featuring handmade jewelry, woodworking, home
décor, seasonal treats, and one-of-a-kind treasures you won't find anywhere
else.
### The Legendary Food Court
Come hungry! Indulge in festival favorites like fried dough and burgers - plus
pumpkin-flavored delights that celebrate the star of the season.
### Kid's Corner Fun
Slime making, face painting, ceramics, pumpkin decorating contests and the
always-adorable Costume Contest - where creativity steals the spotlight!
### Royal Court Tradition
A festival favorite! Local elementary students are crowned Pumpkin King and
Queen, continuing a tradition that has delighted families for generations.
### Live Entertainment
Enjoy lively performances from talented local musicians and entertainers who
keep the festive spirit going all day long.
### A Festival with purpose
Here's to 60 years of pumpkins, partnership, and community.
While the Seymour Pumpkin Festival is packed with fun, its heart has always
been philanthropy. As a non-profit organization, every booth fee, every
ticket, and every pumpkin treat helps give back.
Festival proceeds fund scholarships for local students, support community
organizations, and strengthen youth programs throughout Seymour. For 60 years,
this celebration has not only marked the harvest season - it has helped
cultivate opportunity, generosity, and hometown pride.
Join us as we celebrate six decades of pumpkins, people, and purpose. Here's
to honoring our roots, celebrating our present, and growing an even brighter
future - together.
See you at the festival!
