Rise of the Jack O’ Latern
Halloween Festival Featuring 5,000 Hand-Carved Masterpieces
Marvel at thousands of beautifully lit pumpkin carvings of your favorite characters, celebrities and more at the debut of RISE of the Jack O’Lanterns in downtown Los Angeles. Bring the whole family to the Los Angeles Convention Center for a not-too-spooky stroll where you’ll go out of your gourd over these intricately carved pumpkins, arranged according to various themes, from movie and TV show characters to classic cars, safari animals and even some familiar faces from a galaxy far, far away, all accompanied by an original score. Check out the live carving station, manned by one of the RISE team’s talented artists, and turn this multi-sensory experience into a fun family tradition.
