Pumpkins in the Park, complete with fairground rides and seasonal features for all the family, will run from Saturday through until Halloween itself, Sunday, October 31 and after thousands were attracted to the Lytham venue for highly-successful summer events.
Tim Lince, Lowther’s artistic director and chief executive, said, “We are excited to be able to continue our run of successful outdoor festivals, and we have been keen to try something different from what we achieved in the summer with our Lytham Ice Cream Festival and Lytham World Food and Drink Festival.

Along with a host of rides, visitors will be able to join a guide for a free Lancastrian ghost trail or watch a classic horror-related movie at the Drive-in Cinema.
Pumpkins in the Park is on from noon until 9pm each day, apart from Monday and Tuesday, October 25 and 26, when start time is 5pm. As night falls daily, families will be able to gather in the gardens at 6.30pm for the Light-up Lytham Parade led by fire breathers, giant puppets and features that glow in the dark.
