We are thinking of our neighbors in SWVA and are grateful for the first responders and organizations that are providing assistance. Virginia's Blue Ridge region (Cities of Roanoke & Salem and Counties of Botetourt, Franklin, & Roanoke) was fortunate to sustain minimal damage from the storm and our local businesses are open and ready to welcome visitors.

This event is based on the idea that you either like things made of pumpkin, or you're wrong! The Great Pumpkin Smash is here! Enjoy pumpkin foods, pumpkin brews, live music and of course, the smashing of the great pumpkin! If you surround yourself with pumpkin spice lattes, pumpkin pie candles and carved pumpkins in October, this event is for you! There are other pumpkin festivals in and around Roanoke...but nothing focussing on pumpkin foods and beers. Your event has arrived.
