Pumpkins at PlayPort

Your family is invited to the first-ever Pumpkins at PlayPort festival, a free evening of Halloween fun at Waterfront Park. Kids can wear their favorite costumes and participate in trick-or-treating throughout PlayPort, the park's unique 3.5-acre outdoor play and learning space. Beyond the candy collection, you'll find characters, entertainment, activities, and pumpkins on display to explore together. PlayPort itself is worth discovering if you haven't visited before. This innovative play area showcases custom-built equipment made from repurposed construction and boat materials, celebrating the Ohio River's cultural and industrial heritage. The space is designed for hands-on learning with interactive exhibits connected to STEM concepts, created in partnership with the Kentucky Science Center. All children, regardless of ability, can enjoy the accessible play equipment and educational experiences. Come out for an evening that combines Halloween tradition with creative exploration.
