THE WEATHER
Keep an eye on the sky
Be sure to check the weather forecast in the days leading up to your Pumpkin Nights experience. We remain OPEN during minor rainstorms. However, if lightning or excessive rain occurs, we may choose to close temporarily. If the weather turns and postponements are necessary, we will update our website accordingly and send you updates directly via email & text message.
Postponements are possible
Sometimes weather or other conditions may force us to close for a night. If that happens, your tickets will automatically move to a new date. Within 24 hours, you’ll receive an email with all the details — plus options to easily switch your tickets to another available night if that works better for you.
Similar to a sporting event or concert, Pumpkin Nights has a no-refunds policy. If you purchased tickets and are unable to attend, you will not be eligible to receive a refund.
If you can no longer attend the original night for which you purchased tickets and you wish to attend another night instead, tickets can be transferred up to 48 hours before your scheduled time. Please note:
- There is a $5 fee per rescheduled ticket.
- Transfers cannot be made into a sold-out time slot.
- no refunds are given if you are transferring to a cheaper night.
Follow these steps and transfer your tickets for Austin or Dallas to a new time.

THE FARM
Come prepared to have a good time
Howell Farms is a stunning venue that enhances all the fun Halloween vibes our pumpkins bring. However, hosting an event at a farm does force us to plan around a few things:
- Farms tend to get muddy. Take it from us—if it has rained in the days/hours leading up to your event, don’t wear your new white vans.
- Mosquitoes like to hang out at Pumpkin Nights too. We recommend laying on the bug spray to keep those pests away.
- The Pumpkin Nights trail is made up of grass, loose dirt, gravel, sand, and inclines that can be challenging for some. Light strollers can make it, but wheelchairs have proven difficult to maneuver through the trail. Please plan accordingly.
PRO-TIPS
Make the most out of your experience
Here’s a few pointers to make sure you have the best possible experience at Pumpkin Nights:
- If you have an early timeslot, plan on staying until the sun goes down. The pumpkins shine brighter at night and you won’t want to miss it!
- The walking path is approximately a half-mile long. You may wander through the course as many times as you like once you’ve entered.
- Check out our website calendar. You can see what food, vendors, and entertainment will be at The Pumpkin Village the night of your event.
- We LOVE seeing your photos on social media! Use the hashtag #pumpkinnights and tag us in your Instagram stories (@PumpkinNights).
