We couldn't have done it without the support of our Town, local businesses, sponsors, vendors, & everyone who attended this event for the past
8 years THANK YOU!!

The Annual Plainville PumpkinFest is a downtown outdoor festival featuring live music, a kid's costume parade, kid's games, bounce houses, a large variety of food trucks, spooky haunted house, local vendors, downtown restaurants and businesses. It wouldn't be a PumpkinFest without pumpkins, so everyone is invited to bring their own carved pumpkins or decorate your own at the Pumpkin Patch!!

SHUTTLE BUS/PARKING:
Downtown streets will close by 2:00 pm on Saturday 10/21 and will re-open by 9:00 pm. We are strongly suggesting that people park at PLAINVILLE HIGH SCHOOL FRONT PARKING LOT located on 47 Robert Holcomb Way, where there will be 2 shuttle buses running continuously to the downtown area from 4:00-8:30 pm. All shuttles will drop off and pick-up on the corner of Maple Street and Whiting Street then back to the High School in a continual loop. If you park on any of the side streets surrounding the downtown area, you may run into traffic issues so PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, try to use the shuttle buses to make things run more smoothly. Very Much Appreciated!!
​
NOTE: Handicap parking is behind the municipal center in the center of town, entrance is on Neal Court next to the CITGO Gas /Police station.
