Beautiful Fall Scenery with Pumpkin Patch

As the autumn season approaches, New York City's Govemor's Island is gearing up for its most magical event yet - Pumpking Point! This beloved public festival returns to the historic Admiral's House, bringing with it a plethora of fun-filled activities, stunning fall foliage, and over 10,000 pumpkins of all shapes and sizes.

For the first time ever, Nickelodeon will be joining forces with Pumpkin Point to bring an exciting lineup of characters from popular shows such as PAW Patrol, SpongeBob SquarePants, Monster High 2, and more! Kids (and kids at heart) can get up close and personal with these beloved characters for photo opportunities and daily giveaways.

But that's not all - this year's festivities will also include a fall book corner in partnership with Brooklyn Book Bodega, where visitors can take home books on the final Sunday of the event. Pumpkin painting and crafting activities are also on tap, along with a rotating schedule of special events and performances from WonderSpark Puppets, BubbleDad, Brooklyn Magic Shop, and more.

'We have an entertaining lineup of kid-friendly programming that we can't wait to share with our visitors!' says Patty Davis, Executive Director of the Friends of Governors Island. 'It's truly a magical experience to bask in the beauty of Governors Island while enjoying a fun-filled fall day.'

The festival welcomes thousands of families each year to celebrate autumn with pumpkin picking, trick-or-treating, free public performances, arts and crafts, and so much more! Whether you're coming to admire the stunning foliage, explore public artworks amidst the changing seasons, or enjoy one of New York City's biggest pumpkin patches, there's something for everyone on Governors Island this fall.

So mark your calendars for October 21-22 and October 28-29 and get ready to experience the magic of Pumpking Point! With over 3,500 trees adorned with beautiful foliage, public artworks, and a vast selection of pumpkins to choose from, you won't want to miss out on this enchanting event. And don't forget to stop by the pumpkin patch on weekends to pick out your own pumpkin (free with suggested donation)!
