Returns In 2026
We hope you had a glowing good time during Pumpkins at Kentucky Kingdom in 2025! This year the glow expanded into Discovery Meadow, including a NEW 60-foot light tunnel.
Over 1,000 bright orange pumpkins appeared all over the park, inviting you to play all day on world-class rides and explore fall-themed fun like games, street performances, and colorful characters. After sundown, the park transformed into a whimsical wonderland of glow featuring larger-than-life pumpkin sculptures!
The fall-fun will return in 2026! Right now, we're looking forward to decking the halls as we prepare for Christmas at Kentucky Kingdom, beginning November 22.
