Midwest's Premier Giant Pumpkin Festival

Stillwater Harvest Fest, held the second weekend of October each year, is one of the premier events in downtown Stillwater and one of the largest of its kind in the Midwest. Several times, Stillwater Harvest Fest was the number one giant pumpkin weigh off in the world. That is determined by the combined weight of the Top 10 pumpkins brought to the scale. In 2010 we had a World Record pumpkin.

Highlights of Harvest Fest:

- Giant Pumpkin Weigh Off
- Pumpkin Drop from 100' crane
- Pumpkin Regatta
- Live Music
- Beer & Wine Garden
- Chili Cook Off
- Vendor Market
- Kid's Activities
