About this event
Known as 'The Greatest Free Show on Earth,' the Circleville Pumpkin Show is a four-day autumn tradition just south of Columbus that draws hundreds of thousands of visitors. The streets fill with giant prize-winning pumpkins, pumpkin-themed foods from pies to pancakes to donuts, parades, live entertainment, rides, and craft vendors. It's a quintessential Ohio fall festival and a beloved regional destination. Admission is completely free, though food and rides are sold. Come hungry, expect crowds, and don't miss the enormous champion pumpkins on display.
