Pumpkin Day

Held on the last Sunday of October, Pumpkin Day is a vibrant celebration of the fall season. Organized by the Pumpkin Day Committee and the Arts and Culture Department of the City of Edmundston, this event highlights local talent, artisanal products, and the warm ambiance of autumn.

At Place de l’Artisan, you’ll discover a lively autumn market featuring over 50 exhibitors, including artists, artisans, producers, and creators showcasing their unique works and local goods. It’s the perfect opportunity to start checking items off your holiday gift list while supporting the local economy.

To enhance the day, a diverse musical program by local artists will take place on stage. Families can also enjoy a variety of activities, such as storytelling for children, artistic demonstrations, musical performances, and fun animations like M. Ballon, guaranteed to delight visitors of all ages.

The highlight of the event is the weighing of the largest pumpkin, a much-anticipated moment for everyone. The results, certified by the Great Pumpkin Commonwealth, bring a friendly and competitive touch to the celebration.
