EnglishWhat Is the Circleville Pumpkin Show Website?
Updated
pumpkinshow.com is the official website of the Circleville Pumpkin Show, an annual festival held in Circleville, Ohio. The site serves as the festival's information hub: it publishes the event dates and schedule, contest registration links, parade and pageant details, webcam feeds, photo galleries, and visitor basics such as ride ticket and wristband information. Use it when you want official details about attending, registering for a contest, or following the event remotely.

When the festival happens
The Show is always held the third Wednesday through Saturday in October. The site lists the next edition as October 20–23, 2027, and notes "We'll see you next year!" — confirming the 2026 edition has passed and the site is now pointing to 2027.
The site describes the scale of the event: it attracts over 400,000 visitors (about 100,000 per day) to a community of roughly 12,000 people, with 25–30 amusement rides and about 23,000 pumpkin pies and more than 100,000 pumpkin donuts sold during the Show.
Practical details for visitors
- Ride wristbands: listed at 10 AM to 4 PM for $35 per person per day, and not valid after 4 PM. Individual tickets are required after 4 PM.
- Discount ride tickets: the site advertises discount ride tickets and wristbands on sale through midnight Monday, October 19.
- Contest timing: contest and competition registration reopens in September 2027; the 2026 contest registrations were handled online through the sign-up links.
- Pin contest: designers can submit an original design for the official 2026 Circleville Pumpkin Show pin via the Pin Contest page.
Note that the site mixes references to different years — 2026 contest and pin announcements alongside 2027 dates and ride pricing — so confirm current-year specifics on the linked pages before relying on a figure.
What it is not
This is a festival information site, not a ticket marketplace or online store beyond the ride ticket and wristband offerings described. It doesn't publish a general admission price, and the available material doesn't indicate whether any parts of the site require login. For anything time-sensitive, such as exact registration deadlines or parade lineups, check the Schedule and Registrations pages directly rather than the homepage summaries.
