Calling all pumpkin spice lovers! If you’re like me and can’t get enough of everything pumpkin-flavored, then the First Pumpkin Spice Fest in Grand Rapids is exactly where you need to be! Whether you’re planning a date night, a family outing, or a fun ghouls/goblins day out, this event has it ALL. Trust me, you don’t want to miss it!

When I first heard about this festival, I was like “YES, I’m in!” and grabbed my tickets ASAP. I mean, what could be better than spending a day in the crisp fall air with pumpkin lattes, sweet treats, and a whole lot of fun activities? It’s the perfect way to kick off October, and I’m beyond excited to bring my little man along to experience the amazing flavors and fun of fall. 🍂

So, what’s happening at the fest?

First off, there’s no shortage of exciting activities for all ages. Here’s a sneak peek:

• Professional pumpkin carvers will be showing off their impressive skills, making pumpkin carving an art form! 🎃
• Take a horse-drawn hayride through the fall beauty of the festival grounds. 🐴
• There’s a petting zoo where the kiddos (and adults!) can get up close with some cute animals. 🐑
• Feeling strong? Try your hand at pumpkin chucking—it’s as fun as it sounds! 🎯
• Don’t forget about the face painting station, where you can get all decked out in festive fall designs! 🎨
• Fireworks to end the night with a bang, literally! 🎆

And it doesn’t stop there! There will also be live entertainment to keep the energy high, a kid zone for the little ones to run wild, and tons of fun vendors to shop from. You can grab some unique fall finds while enjoying all the festive fun! 🛍️

The event is happening on October 4th, 2025, at LMCU Ballpark in Grand Rapids. It’s going to be an unforgettable day filled with pumpkin-spiced everything and plenty of fall fun, no matter who you’re with. Kids 2 and under get in FREE, making it a perfect outing for the whole family. And if you’re like me and want to get the most out of this pumpkin-packed day, VIP tickets are the way to go! Not only do you get early entry before the crowds, but you also get to enjoy a workout with Barre3 to start the day off on a healthy note before indulging in all those pumpkin treats. 🏋️‍♀️

I honestly can’t wait to experience this with Mason and soak up all the pumpkin magic. It’s the ultimate fall event for pumpkin lovers, and I’m so excited to share it with all of you. I’m counting down the days until we’re there together, enjoying pumpkin everything and making memories with friends and family.
