Get into the Halloween spirit at Strathcona Square's Pumpkin Festival

Halloween is just around the corner, and Strathcona Square Shopping Centre is throwing a Pumpkin Festival to celebrate.

On Saturday, October 22, there will be a pumpkin pie contest and a pumpkin carving contest to satiate the cravings of those hungry for Halloween.

If you think your pumpkin pie is the best in the city or your carving scales are off the chain, then register at the Square or contact them at [email protected].

Fabulous prizes are up for grabs, courtesy of the merchants at Strathcona Square.

The contests are open to everyone and it’s a great chance to come out and support your local community.

And celebrate all things pumpkin, of course.
