Pumpkin Fest, a Brevard tradition since 2015, is an annual family-friendly Halloween-themed event held at Silvermont Park the first four weekends of October. Featuring beautiful lighted carved pumpkin displays on a short walking trail, local musicians, food trucks, games, storytelling, face painting, a white squirrel scavenger hunt, and tours of the historic mansion, Pumpkin Fest is developed, organized, and staffed by Friends of Silvermont, an all-volunteer organization.
