This renowned walk-through Halloween experience features more than 7,000 hand-carved, illuminated jack-o'-lanterns forming assorted impressive displays, with lighting and music enhancements. New for 2024, celebrate the Blaze's 20th year with a giant birthday cake and Celebration Arch, check out the Gourd & Goblet Tavern, a new VIP experience on the pumpkin trail, and spot the giant Kraken rising from the Croton River.
All admission is by timed-entry ticket only, and tickets must be purchased in advance. In years past, the organizer has added additional dates during the show's run, so check back for updates. Tickets may be purchased online or by phone.
FLEX ticketing allows advance purchase of tickets that can be used any night during the show's run, which sells out early on popular dates.
