2025 Great Pumpkin Carve of Chadds Ford

An annual Chadds Ford tradition, the three-day event highlights over 70 giant pumpkins carved into amazing creations. Carvers work through the early evening on Thursday and then illuminate their masterpieces by candlelight. Guests can view the carvers at work Thursday and the finished products Friday and Saturday. In addition to the pumpkin patch, there is a Haunted Trail, live music and local artisans selling their handmade wares and goods. Food and Fall treats are offered by area eateries along with local craft beer and wine.
