We visited the Magic of the Jack O’Lanterns for its second time taking place at the South Coast Botanic Garden.
Immediately at the front of the venue, there is a security check point, and no outside food and drinks will be allowed into the event. Upon clearing security, however, after entering security you are guided to the path to the event.
When you arrive at the entrance there will be a series of photo opportunities, a booth selling light up items, and approved food and beverage vendors as well as a Bar for adult drinks. The food options at the event, like last year, is similar to that of carnival food.
Immediately upon entering the experience, you’ll be dazzled with hundreds upon hundreds of decorated pumpkins, all glowing different colors and mesmerizing the adjacent fields to the path. After passing through a pumpkin-covered section of the path, you enter into the many themed sections of the journey.
Besides the amazing pumpkins to view, there is so much more to do at the experience including the space in which you’ll find s’mores available for purchase and fire pits to cook them. Again the Fun Zone returns which can be accessed with an upgraded $5 per ticket. If you didn’t purchase it with your ticket earlier, you can scan the QR code at the entrance and purchase your upgrade. I highly recommend this add-on, specifically if you are bringing your children along for the experience. Our daughter had almost an hour’s worth of fun bouncing on the bounce floor alone.
