Get ready to pumpkin up on the rooftop!

New York City’s Cityside Pumpkin Patch is back, taking over The Summer Club‘s rooftop located at 8-08 Queens Plaza S in Long Island City.

Starting October 4th, you can explore a magical wonderland of over 10,000 pumpkins, all with stunning views of the city skyline.

The patch will have over 10,000 upstate New York-sourced pumpkins of all shapes and sizes spread across the 25,000-square-foot space. Most ticket packages offer a complimentary pumpkin, however they are also available for purchase individually.
