Since 1986 West Virginia Pumpkin Park in Milton has celebrated the glory of autumn and the
harvest with the West Virginia Pumpkin Festival, which has turned into one of the state's largest
fests. The festival was designed to help farmers with the raising and selling of pumpkins. Located
in Milton, WV, between the two cities of Huntington and Charleston, along the I-64 corridor, the
festival attracts attention from throughout the region. Each October, more than 50,000 people
travel to Milton to participate in our celebration of the pumpkin harvest.

The festival hosts a cultural array of activities for the entire family to enjoy. In addition to over
100 skilled artisans who display juried crafts, numerous special exhibits and demonstrations are
presented throughout the festival. Master craftsmen share their expertise in areas such as
blacksmithing, pottery making, quilting and woodworking, a mountain men encampment, and lots
of old-time demonstrations like sorghum making, and much more, along with many business
booths.

Some of the area's finest musicians can also be found displaying their talent at the
WV Pumpkin Festival. Whether you enjoy bluegrass, traditional music, or quality
contemporary artists, you'll be certain to find an abundance of music to enjoy during your
stay at the festival.
