Discovery Cube’s First-Ever Pumpkin Palooza Festival
10.03.22
The not-so-frightful "Pumpkin Palooza" festivities begin on Thursday, Oct. 6, and run through Monday, Oct. 31, with a host of new, spellbinding science activities for kids of all ages. Open Thursday – Sunday, guests should plan for a howling good time as the new festival features some of the most scientifically silly Halloween activities conjured up in the lab, including:
- The Pumpkin Palooza Dance Party – A 30-minute, interactive dance party that includes a giant 20 ft. projection-mapped DJ named "Jack-o-Lynn" spinning some of today's most popular dance hits.
- Ride Boo's Bumper Cars – Caution! Little ghosts and goblins will be flying around a man-made track as they learn the laws of motion and speed.
- Crazy Mazes – Guests will unleash their cognitive abilities as they make their way through two crazy maze challenges.
- Pick-A-Pumpkin Patch – Look no further, you will find the cutest pumpkins in this patch as guests pick and play amongst the gourds.
- And much, more
Get ready to carve out some fun as guests are encouraged to come in costume and play the day away across two floors of the "Pumpkin Palooza" festival showcase. Ticket prices for the fall festival experience are $5, and are not included in the general admission price for entry.
Tickets for Discovery Cube's Orange County Pumpkin Palooza are available for purchase at discoverycube.com. The ticket price includes costume parades every Saturday and Sunday and a very special Trick or Treating experience on Sunday, October 30, and Halloween day, Monday, October 31, 2022.
