Seasonal festivities return with Pumpkins in the Pines

SkyPark at Santa’s Village will once again host its annual Pumpkins in the Pines event, drawing visitors to the San Bernardino Mountains for a blend of fall-themed activities and outdoor recreation. The event runs on weekends from Oct. 11- 26, offering a mix of entertainment, seasonal décor and family-friendly programming.

Located just a short drive from UCLA Lake Arrowhead Lodge, SkyPark transforms into an autumnal setting featuring a park-wide pumpkin patch, live performances and interactive experiences such as pumpkin painting and costume contests. The event is designed to appeal to both families and couples, with activities ranging from puppet shows to scenic photo opportunities and warm seasonal beverages.

Special programming includes the Monster Mash Skate Party, a Halloween mountain bike parade and the Spooky Spectacular, which features trick-or-treating throughout the park. These events are included with general admission and are expected to draw large crowds during peak weekends.

In conjunction with the festivities, UCLA Lake Arrowhead Lodge has announced the return of its Pumpkins in the Pines lodging offer, which includes 10% off the best available room rate and two tickets to SkyPark’s fall celebration. Lodge guests can enjoy access to hiking trails, outdoor sports courts, and cozy accommodations surrounded by pine forest.

The seasonal promotion is aimed at travelers seeking a mountain retreat during the fall months, with a focus on nature, recreation and regional events. Reservations are now open, and availability is expected to fill quickly as the event approaches.
