4th annual Pumpkins & Palm Trees

Details

Happy Fall, Ya’ll! The Fourth Annual Pumpkins & Palm Trees Fall Fest returns to The LOOP on Sunday, Oct. 27, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Celebrate the season South Florida-style with a free, family-friendly day packed with festive fun. Enjoy live music, a vibrant lineup of local vendors, a children’s arts & crafts CORNer, and lawn games where you can compete to win exciting prizes. It's the perfect way to welcome a new season to the shore.

Sip, shop, and stroll through over three dozen food, art, and fashion vendors at The MKT.

Don’t miss the chance to snap memorable photos at our Fall and Halloween-themed photo stations, where every corner is Instagram-worthy! Families, and even their four-legged friends, are encouraged to dress in costume to capture the season's magic. Plus, show your support for Feeding South Florida by participating in our virtual harvest food drive, benefiting the region’s largest hunger relief organization.

As part of the celebration, The LOOP is also supporting Feeding South Florida through on-site pumpkin patch sales, with proceeds going to help those in need. A variety of premium pumpkins will be available, with sizes ranging from minis and gourds to larger variegated and white options. Pumpkin Craft Kits will also be available for $10 each, with one cantaloupe-sized pumpkin and your choice of Sea Animals or Scarecrow premium foam decorations. These kits are perfect for sparking creativity and are available exclusively on-site.

Pies and shine, it’s dessert time! The Fourth Annual “Best Pie in Greater Fort Lauderdale” Competition kicks off at 11 a.m. in partnership with the Florida Restaurant & Lodging Association, Broward Chapter. Professional and Cottage bakers and Broward County Public Schools’ culinary programs will compete to see who has the most irresistible pies in town! A panel of South Florida’s favorite foodies will judge entries in the sweet, savory, and creative pie categories, with exciting prizes up for grabs. It’s a slice of fall fun you won’t want to miss!
