The London Pumpkin Patch takes place at Parsons Green (SW6) from 24 October to 1 November, running daily from 10am to 7pm. A family event ideal for children who love Halloween and trick-or-treating and offers central London’s only pick-your-own pumpkin patch.

Children can enjoy trick-or-treating on Trick-or-Treat Lane, where children knock on the doors of live-actors dressed as characters from the Amazon children’s book, The Greatest Halloween Story That’s Never Been Told after having heard the story from the book’s animatronic narrator Mossbeard Treethistle.

Families will stroll Instagram-worthy Halloween displays and partake in a variety of seasonal food and drink stalls on site. Children have access to a brand-new complimentary play zone with games like Jack-O-Lantern Toss, Giant Connect Four, Pumpkin Bowling, Hook-a-Pumpkin, and Pumpkins and Crosses. On 1 November, the patch hosts a SMASH Day utilizing a Spiky Pumpkin Board and Splat Wall, with all resulting pumpkin waste recycled into eco-friendly biofuel.

Advance tickets booked before 1 October cost £6 for Patch entry, while Trick-or-Treat Lane tickets cost £10 per child.
