Every year, Half Moon Bay is ablaze with orange pumpkins and colorful flowers. The bountiful fall harvest of pumpkins and other agricultural fare abound all throughout the Coastside area.

The Half Moon Bay Art & Pumpkin Festival brings visitors to the “world pumpkin capital” for a festival on historic Main Street between Miramontes and Spruce Streets. This year’s 40th festival will be held on Oct. 16-17 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is free.

Featured events include a pancake breakfast (both days, 7 a.m.), 5 & 10k pumpkin run (Sunday, 8 a.m.), pumpkin carving for fun — no judging (Sunday, 10 a.m.).

In addition to a display of enormous champion pumpkins, there are three stages of entertainment, the Great Pumpkin Parade, a Haunted House, a food court offered by local non-profit groups, pumpkin carving and pie-eating and costume contests.

Since the beginning of the festival, the committee has contributed nearly two million dollars to civic projects and community service organizations.
