What more is there to love than football, PSLs, family outings, fall weather + costume parties? Fall is finally upon us, OKC, and we have a curated list of five favorite spooky season festivities in the metro. Boo-yay!

The 2022 theme is “Witches & Wizards” inspired by the classic film, Wizard of Oz. With over 30,000 pumpkins on beautiful displays, interactive activities, games, vendors and more – this event is truly magical. Thousands of people from all over attend each year to take in the fall spirit in the heart of Downtown OKC. So, make your plans to attend Pumkinville as it opens on October 7th.
