CIRCLEVILLE, Ohio (WCMH) — The 115th Circleville Pumpkin Show is back next week with more than 100,000 pounds of pumpkins, baked goods, family entertainment, a fine art show and more.
Twenty-five miles south of Columbus, the Circleville Pumpkin Show kicks off at 159 E. Franklin St. on Oct. 19, running through Oct. 22. The festivities attract more than 400,000 visitors every year to Circleville, home to 13,000 residents.
The four-day celebration features live music, seven parades and more than 400 booths offering food, retail, games and crafts for sale. The show is also home to a number of contests, including the Miss Pumpkin Show Contest and the Pumpkin Pie Eating Contest. A pet parade and entertainment show also run each day.
The show opens Wednesday with the Giant Pumpkin Weigh In as local growers compete for the Giant Pumpkin Champion Trophy and $3,000. Last year, 37 giant pumpkins entered the contest with one 1,850.5-pound pumpkin squashing its competition to take home the top prize.
The show wouldn’t be complete without pumpkin-flavored treats. This year’s show will include donuts, cookies, burgers, pizza, tacos, chili, elephant ears, pancakes, taffy, ice cream, cake, waffles, cream puffs, fudge, brownies, thousands of pies and more.
Bakers from Lindsey’s Bakery will continue a more than 60-year tradition of making one of the world’s largest pumpkin pies during the show. Last year’s pie weighed over 400 pounds, was 6 feet in diameter and took 12 hours to bake and cool.
