Every October we turn up the heat, pull out the stops, and get our (par-tay) game on. The countdown begins…
Join us for a Blowout Bash of ginormous proportions. Cheer the Pumpkin Death Match. See what pops in a made-on-the-spot hot glass bowl. Be entertained with “Thriller” fire spinning. Be amazed at the Great Pumpkin Blow. Anything could happen…
*Doors locked from 4-6p on Third Friday to prep. We reopen at 6p to Bash!*
