Giant Pumpkins Championship In Copenhagen
The Danish Championships for Giant Pumpkins will be moved to Tivoli in Copenhagen on Saturday 11 October. For a number of years now, the competition has been held in other locations. Now it is moving to Tivoli where the winning pumpkins will be chosen on Saturday 11 October at 11.00 and be on display for the rest of the season. The Gardens will be decorated with pumpkins, scarecrows and all the other trimmings required for creating the right Halloween atmosphere for the whole family. Tivoli’s Halloween in Copenhagen is based on the “horrific fun” principle, so even the youngest children can participate. Every day you can meet Tivoli’s witches and heroes (Harlequin, Pierrot and Columbine) on the Halloween Square by the Open Air Stage where the big mill is located and see them march through Tivoli with the Pumpkin Band (the Tivoli Boys Guard).
Opening Hours
Halloween in Tivoli is from Friday the 10th October until Sunday the 19nd October.
