About this adventure

Skylands Stadium in Augusta closes out its fall festival with nightly openings through November 1, 2026. The main attraction is a roughly 45-minute walk-through lit by more than 6,000 hand-carved jack-o'-lanterns, arranged into scenes that range from dragons and dinosaurs to superheroes and New Jersey landmarks, with fog effects, soundscapes and photo-op stations along the path. Around the trail, families find a kid-friendly corn maze, a petting zoo, pumpkin painting and crafts on select days, a s'mores fire pit, hot cider and cocoa, and food from the stadium's Barnyard restaurant; a beer garden and live music are aimed at grown-ups. The organizer suggests planning about two hours to see the festival as well as the walk. Tickets are dated and must be bought in advance; children 36 inches tall and under get in free. It runs rain or shine, though opening times can shift with lighting conditions and weather, and the Saturday, October 31 night is billed as an adult Halloween party, so families may prefer another evening.
