Pumpkin Parade

On November 1 from 6:30-8:30 over 300+ carved pumpkins light the paths of East Lynn Park with approx. 700+ people attending this event to admire the amazing sight. True to DECA’s mandate, the Pumpkin Parade strives to make Danforth East a more vibrant, walkable, safe and fun neighbourhood. Kids and adults alike enjoy playing in the park at night with the wide variety of pumpkins glowing nearby. It's said to be magical!

Enjoy!
