What Is The Magic of the Jack O’Lanterns
The Magic of the Jack O’Lanterns is a walk through pumpkin experience set along South Coast Botanic Garden’s winding trails. This year’s show features more than 10,000 hand carved jack o’lanterns spread across a mile long path, with glowing scenes that include a nautical seascape, a pirate ship, dinosaurs, dragons, and plenty of other surprises lit up along the way. The event runs on select nights now through November 1.
Larger Than Life Displays and Photo Opportunities
Beyond the individual carved pumpkins, the trail includes larger than life displays where vibrant, glowing sculptures bring entire scenes to life. Guests will find no shortage of unique photo spots tucked among the intricate carvings and light displays, making it an easy stop for anyone looking to capture a few fall photos in the South Bay.
S’mores Station and Food and Drinks
A s’mores station gives visitors a chance to make and enjoy their own s’mores right on the trail. Food and beverages are also available on site, so guests can turn the outing into a full evening out rather than a quick stop.
New Fun Zone With a Bounce Pad and Slides
New this year is a Fun Zone built around a massive bounce pad and oversized slides. It gives kids and adults alike a spot to burn off some energy in between exploring the glowing pumpkin displays.
Live Entertainment for All Ages
Live entertainment runs throughout the event, rounding out an experience organizers describe as fun for all ages, from young kids to grandparents.
