What’s better than a spooktacular event for the whole family? One that’s FREE!

On Saturday, October 27th, NYC Parks will host Pumpkin Fest in Central Park, an annual event that celebrates the fall harvest season.

• Pride of New York Farmers Market
• Fitness classes for kids and adults, courtesy of Shape Up NYC
