Join Friends of Fort Point Channel and celebrate autumn in Fort Point! The Pumpkin Pageant is a treasured tradition. On Thursday, October 19, Fort Point businesses will bring their fiercest, funniest, and most creative jack-o-lanterns to the Harborwalk at Boston Children’s Museum to be judged by passersby. Winning categories are Scariest Pumpkin, Funniest Pumpkin, Most Original Pumpkin, and the Crowd Favorite Pumpkin. Stick around because there will be plenty of games and activities including pumpkin bowling, pumpkin painting, press-your-own apple cider, and more!

Winners of the pumpkin carving contest will be announced that evening at the Fort Point Fall Fling, hosted by the Boston Tea Party Ships and Museum. Enjoy festive drinks, small bites, live music by The Country Hits, press-your-own apple cider, and cocktails with our special guest bartender.
