Scarborough Bluffs 7th Annual Pumpkin Parade

Sandown Park comes alive once again with neighbourhood pumpkins on November 1st!

Each year, on November 1st, Toronto’s pumpkins shine brightly for one last night in parks across the city and we are SO excited to be back at Sandown Park in Cliffside at 50 Natal Ave. (Midland Ave & Kingston Rd) to enjoy the neighbourhood pumpkins as they proudly ‘parade’ for our wonderful community! 

Pumpkins can be dropped off any time between 6pm and 9pm on November 1st, and we will have volunteers on hand to help you place and light your creation! 

No pumpkin? No problem! Come by to say hello and see your community’s creativity!

All pumpkins will then be composted in a City provided bin following the event!

This year we will be doing a random draw for some SBCA swag!

Contest is open to anyone who drops off a pumpkin at our parade, so be sure to see a member of the SBCA to learn how to enter!

Why do we host a Pumpkin Parade?

Because we absolutely LOVE seeing the community come together, and when you throw in some of the cutest, scariest, funniest and most creative pumpkins into the mix…it’s MAGICAL!!!

We can’t wait to see you all on November 1st and continue this fantastic tradition!

Why do we host a Pumpkin Parade? It’s a chance for us to meet the community in a community-built event. It’s about sharing and admiring people’s creations, seeing kids play with new and old friends and sometimes we’re lucky enough to see a second go-round of costumes! The founder of Toronto’s Pumpkin Parade feels the same way. See her interview here.

We look forward to seeing you November 1st!

3rd Annual Pumpkin Parade!

Sandown Park came alive with pumpkins on Nov 1st

Halloween night was cold, windy and wet. What a relief to have it dry up in time for our pumpkin parade!

We had a number of pumpkins arrive before 6 and by the time we were ready to start, we had a good turn out!

Taking advantage of walking their dogs AND dropping off pumpkins!
