This will mark the 11th year for the event in Louisville, which runs Oct. 3-31. The event will be held rain or shine unless there's severe weather.
The trail of more than 5,000 carved pumpkins opens at dusk. Guests will enter the Iroquois Amphitheater for 1-hour tour time slots on the pumpkin trail.
On opening night, Tuesday, Oct. 3, during The Pre-Lit Bash presented by Heaven Hill, guests can enjoy cocktails and food before going on the trail.
A Sensory Night presented by PNC Bank will be on Monday, Oct. 25 with gates opening at 6 p.m. For one hour, pumpkins will be lit with music playing low and no special effects.
