Pumpkin competition

Halloween is approaching and the Tourist Office is putting pumpkins in the spotlight.

Everyone can carve their own pumpkin at home and drop it off at the Tourist Office reception between Wednesday 28 and Friday 30 October before 11 am. A panel of judges will then select the scariest pumpkin on Friday 30 October at 12 noon, across three age categories.

The competition is free to enter and open to children aged 4 and over. Pumpkins must not contain any animals or bladed objects.
