There’s a cool-looking new happening coming to Nashville this Halloween season — The Glow: A Jack O’Lantern Experience.
It’s taking place Oct. 12 – 29 at Fontanel. The Glow features more than 5,000 hand-carved, illuminated pumpkins transformed into landscapes, iconic figures and larger-than-life structures. They’ll be displayed along “Jack’s Trail,” a one-third mile trail where the pumpkins are on display.
THE GLOW: A KID-FRIENDLY EXPERIENCE
The experience is little-kid friendly; there’s no spooks, frights or ghouls along the trail. Dinosaur-loving children are sure to enjoy Prehistoric Park where they can stare up into the glowing eyes of 16-foot-tall dinosaurs before encountering a pumpkin pirate ship.
Several of the carvings honor sports icons, movie stars, superheroes and more. Rumor has it, kids might stumble upon their favorite princesses on pumpkins, too.
