Pumpkin Harvest Festival

Enjoy an old-time fall celebration without even having to leave the city! This year, Four Mile Historic Park will feature all of the favorites as well as some new elements, such as food trucks and a beer garden sponsored by Copper Kettle Brewing Company. Highlights of this event include a scarecrow-building station and pumpkin patch, pie-eating contests, live music, crafts, seasonal treats, and county fair amusements. Historic demonstrations and tours of the Four Mile House Museum will highlight how families in the region lived and prepared for the season during the late 1800s. Horse-drawn wagon rides will be offered each day so you can take a turn about the grounds in 19th-century style.

Admission is free, but there is a charge for food and some activities. Proceeds from all sales help further Four Mile Historic Park’s mission to promote the preservation, interpretation, and enjoyment of Denver’s western heritage.
