We are sad to announce that the 2020 Houston Pumpkin Festival is cancelled. We waited as long as possible with hopes the situation may change, however, during these unprecedented times we feel it is the best decision. The health and safety of our community, vendors, and volunteers is most important to us. The Houston Pumpkin Festival is sponsored by the Houston Volunteer Fire Department and the festival is the primary annual fundraiser for the department making this a difficult decision.
