Worth It
One of Cumbria's most distinctive grown-up autumn nights, with more of a mini-festival feel than ordinary pumpkin picking.
Pumpkin Picking After Dark returns on 16, 17, 23, 24, 29 and 30 October 2026, 6.30pm-10pm. This is strictly 18+.
Expect thousands of pumpkins, glowing lights, 20+ photo opportunities, live music, seasonal food, a licensed bar and access to the Indoor Adventure Play Barn, Milecastle and Animal Barn.
Tickets
£9.50 per person. Pumpkins are individually priced and are not included. Walby says 2025 dates sold out.
Practical advice
This is a working farm: wrap up warmly and wear wellies or sensible footwear. Free on-site parking is available.
Weather plan
Outdoor autumn event: warm layers and suitable footwear recommended.
