The trick-or-treaters may have come and gone but the Halloween fun continues for one more night!
Join Grimsby and West Niagara residents in the area's second annual Pumpkin Parade. The first one in 2022 was a lot of fun and a tremendous success.
Walk the newly renovated Coronation Park path from 5:30 to 7:30 PM to see many community carved and decorated jack-o-lanterns as well as painted and lighted Halloween and Fall Harvest displays. Join your friends and family to enjoy the glow of over 400+ pumpkins and take selfies at our stationed displays and booths. You can even visit with our fortune teller again! The event is appropriate for kids of all ages and leashed dogs.
Want to include your jack-o-lantern in the parade or carving contest ? Simply drop your Halloween jack-o-lanterns at the Community swimming pool on event day between 10:30 AM - 4:00PM. The volunteers will position your pumpkin accordingly so they can be enjoyed one more time! All jack-o-lanterns included in the parade or the carving contest will be properly composted atterwards.
The event is fully accessible and Free to attend. Rotary encourages everyone to help us put this event on again next year so remember to bring your loonies, toonies and debit cards to make donations-we have TipTap this year! All donations will support the various community charities that Rotary supports and Grimsby Glows - year 3.
