Celebrate 30 Years of PUMPKINFEST at Gammondale Farm – The Final Event!
This fall marks the 30th annual PUMPKINFEST at Gammondale Farm, and while we’re excited to celebrate this milestone, it’s bittersweet as it will also be the FINAL PUMPKINFEST. After three decades of family fun, this is your last chance to experience the magic of our fall festival.
Nestled at the base of Candy Mountain in the scenic Slate River Valley, Gammondale Farm comes alive each autumn with vibrant colours and exciting outdoor activities. From the Monster Forest Maze, to the Pumpkin Train, the farm has been the backdrop for cherished memories for families across Thunder Bay for years.

- Picking the Perfect Pumpkin
- Canada’s Biggest Pumpkin Catapult
- Pumpkin Train & Pumpkin Slingshot
- Meet Ike, Northwestern Ontario’s largest horse – a gentle giant!
- New this year: Pumpkin Bowling!
- Enjoy favourites like the Bronco Train, Corn Cannon, “BOO” Barn, Farm Animals, Trike Trails, Duck Races, and more!
With so many activities included in your admission, there’s something for everyone. Plan to spend about two hours at PUMPKINFEST enjoying all the fun we have to offer.
