52nd Annual Half Moon Bay Art & Pumpkin Festival
Saturday & Sunday, October 19th - 20th, 9am - 5pm
Main Street, between Mill and Spruce Streets, Half Moon Bay
Regardless of what's going on around us, one delightful constant remains at this time of year: the arrival of the enchanting and eagerly awaited autumn season. On the picturesque coast around Half Moon Bay, the stunning geography and autumnal beauty create a breathtaking sight to behold.
