At Animal Experience at Fritz Park
Looking for those perfect fall vibes? Head to the Fritz Park Pumpkin Patch! This event is a must for your autumn bucket list, especially for families with little ones. The Animal Experience at Fritz Park is hosting its fourth annual Pumpkin Patch event every weekend from Oct. 4 through 26.
Pick the perfect locally grown pumpkin for carving, decorating, or baking—all just $10, with a portion supporting Irving Animal Services. Capture adorable moments with the kids in the patch, and don’t miss the chance to have family pictures taken by the professional photographer on-site.
The fully interactive petting zoo lets kids pet, brush, and feed animals like goats, sheep, alpacas, and miniature cows. Feed cups are just $1, and kids under 70 pounds can take a pony ride for $3.
Kids will also love the Magic Pumpkin Garden, where they can plant a Magic Pumpkin Seed for $3 and explore the Straw Maze. After their adventure, they’ll return to see what their seed has grown into and paint their very own Magic Pumpkin!
There are also plenty of free activities, including Halloween-themed games, a spooky barn, pig races, Lemur Land, and chicken pumpkin carving.
We love how affordable this event is with admission priced at $4 for Irving residents and $5 for non-residents (children under 2 are free). And for $10, the child's combo package includes admission, a feed cup, a pony ride, and a Magic Pumpkin Seed.
Don’t forget to visit the Boo Bakery for seasonal treats and drinks like Witches Brew and apple cider tea, and check out the Ghoulish Gift Shop before you head home!

But if scares aren’t your thing, don’t worry—there are plenty of carnival games, rides, and interactive experiences to keep everyone entertained! Indulge in a caramel apple, get your face painted, and who knows—you might even win one of the pumpkin giveaways. Don’t forget to take advantage of the many family photo ops available to capture those unforgettable moments!
This fang-tastic event originally debuted as a drive-thru in 2020 and quickly became a howling success. Now, each spooky season, Irving Parks and Recreation invites all the city's ghosts and ghouls to boo-gie on down for some frightful fun.
