All Ages Welcome

The Town of Carefree is excited to welcome back the Glass Pumpkin Patch, hosted by Gregory Tomb of AZ Glassblowing Studio, from Friday, October 2 through Sunday, October 4, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily at the Sanderson Lincoln Pavilion.

This family-friendly fall tradition transforms the heart of Carefree into a colorful pumpkin patch unlike any other, featuring hundreds of one-of-a-kind, hand-blown glass pumpkins in a variety of colors, shapes, sizes and designs. Guests are invited to stroll through the display, admire the craftsmanship and find the perfect pumpkin to add to their fall décor or give as a unique seasonal gift.

Each glass pumpkin is individually handcrafted by artist Gregory Tomb, owner of Adirondack Glassblowing and AZ Glassblowing Studios. From vibrant traditional fall colors to whimsical patterns and unexpected designs, no two pumpkins are exactly alike.

Come early, explore the patch and spend some time discovering everything Carefree Town Center has to offer. Grab a bite to eat, browse local shops, wander through the gardens and enjoy the charm of fall in the desert.

Celebrate the season in Carefree with art, giving, live music and a touch of small-town charm!

Shop for a Cause

Visitors can purchase their favorite pumpkins and take them home the same day. A portion of each sale will benefit the Foothills Food Bank, helping support its work to combat food insecurity and provide resources to individuals and families throughout the local community.

Live Music on Saturday

Make a day of it on Saturday, October 3, when the Glass Pumpkin Patch will also feature a special Sanderson Lincoln Saturday performance by Ben Bolt from noon to 3 p.m. Enjoy live music while browsing the pumpkin patch, strolling through the Carefree Desert Gardens and exploring the shops and restaurants throughout Town Center.
