Some pumpkins end up in pies, while others adorn our front porches, but the most special of pumpkins are selected to become a part of Magic of the Jack O’Lanterns, a seasonal attraction for all ages at Hudson Gardens. The “whimsical walking trail” is open from Friday, September 22 through Halloween night, Tuesday, October 31, 2023.
Magic of the Jack O’Lanterns will delight adults and children alike under a magnificent glow of 7,000 hand-carved pumpkins and larger-than-life pumpkin displays.

A nautical seascape, pirate ship, dinosaurs and dragons will illuminate the grounds of the Gardens where magic can be found around every corner.
Magic of the Jack O’Lanterns is an entirely outdoor event and the show will go on rain or shine. Please dress appropriately. This event takes place on a 1/2 mile dirt walking trail. Please wear comfortable shoes and prepare to be on your feet.
There will be food and beverage options for guests of all ages. Guests 21+ will be able to enjoy themed, seasonal cocktails.
