A long-standing tradition, the Cabbagetown Pumpkin Walk provides a magical evening of twinkling orange lights for all the family.
The Pumpkin walk occurs every November 1, from 6-8pm in Riverdale Park West. Cabbagetown residents are invited to bring their decorated Hallowe’en pumpkins, to be lined up along the main walkways. Each pumpkin is furnished with a tealight and, as the sun goes down the fun begins. Residents are encouraged to re-don their finest Hallowe’en costumes to make this evening even more fun for everyone.
Each year the CRA also hosts a food drive and visitors are encouraged to bring along non-perishable foods to address food insecurity in the greater Cabbagetown community.
The City also plays its part by providing us with a bin so that all the Pumpkins can be properly recycled by the City of Toronto! If you are able, please stick around afterwards to help clean up the pumpkins.
