Pumpkin patches are popping up across Palm Beach County this fall, in parking lots, at festivals and on working farms. Some let visitors shop for pumpkins without an entry fee. Others charge admission for rides, games and other activities, but all make good spots for fall photos.
One West Palm Beach patch is open from Oct. 2 through Saturday, Nov. 1, 2026. A separate Saturday event on Oct. 24 runs from 2 to 5 p.m.
The roundup also points to a busy calendar of Halloween and fall events. Spookyville at the South Florida Fairgrounds in West Palm Beach runs Oct. 17 to 31 with trick-or-treating for children 10 and under. Wellington’s one-night Fall Festival is Oct. 17. Boynton Beach holds a free Fall Festival the same day, and its Pirate Fest on Oct. 31 and Nov. 1 is free to enter. Royal Palm Beach’s Rock n’ Fall Festival takes over Commons Park Oct. 23 and 24.
Many of the listed events are free or low cost, which matters for families planning October weekends on a budget. Organizers often change dates and prices, so readers should confirm details with the host before heading out.
