For the month of October, Jack-o-Lantern World has taken over Millennium Park. About 17 different displays featured thousands of pumpkins that have all been hand-carved. It is about a 45-minute walk through the trail, which is well marked with lights.

There are only three Jack-o-Lantern World events taking placed in the United states. The other two are near Chicago and in Nebraska. The Grand Rapids “world” is open Thursday – Sunday. Times vary each day. Tickets are $15/$16 for those 3-12 and under, depending on day, and $22/$24 for those 13 and older, depending on day. For more information, visit jackolanternworld.com. Millennium Park is located at 1415 Maynard Ave. SW.
