Experience Cincinnati’s newest fall tradition.
2024 marks the first year for the annual Jack O’ Lantern Glow at the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden. This special fall event will showcase over 5000 hand-carved jack o’ lanterns placed and themed along a special pumpkin trail at The Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden. The trail is set to lights, sounds, and special effects along your magical journey. Before and after your pumpkin journey, be sure to enjoy more fun in Vince Street Village.
Jack O’ Lantern Pumpkin Artists work hard throughout the year planning new themes and attractions to add. Each pumpkin in our show is considered a star and is given the upmost attention when carving. The 2024 show will have themes like Under the Sea, Day of the Dead, Cincinnati Landmarks, Zoo Safari and so much more!
