Livermore Downtown
Halloween Carnival "We are excited about this evolution to a local family, kid focused Carnival event." Says Board President Anthony McPeake. "The downtown Trick-or-Treat had grown over the years to an event huge in attendance and we can no longer afford to support it at the level needed to insure the safety of our attendees. Rather than cancel the tradition completely, we are reeling it back to an event that is focused on our Tri-Valley children in halloween costumes, enjoying a carnival designed just for them by our downtown merchants and Livermore business community." This year's carnival will be made up of Carnival games and activity booths and take place on J Street and K Street between First and Second Street as well as the Livermore Valley Plaza and the Flag Pole Plaza. The Vine Center businesses will be hosting rides and activities in their back parking lot behind the Vine Cinema. Marcel Orthodontics will be recreating the Grease Carnival, complete with a mechanical fun house that will be located on K Street. To participate, children will purchase a $5.00 fun pass that will give
them access to all of the downtown activities. The fun passes may be
purchased in advance at the Livermore Downtown Inc. office at 2060 Second
Street. They will be available at fun pass booths in each activity location
on the evening of the Carnival.

Moore's Bay
Area Pumpkin Patch Family owned and operated servicing the Bay Area since 1984 and focusing on family fun ever since. Located at Rowell Ranch Rodeo Grounds off 580 in Castro Valley we're not just any old Pumpkin Patch or Christmas Tree Lot, we're a Family Fun Park complete with rides and attractions. Children can use our provided "Pumpkin Patch Travelers" otherwise known as red wagons to transport their "perfect pumpkins". Then on to the carnival rides you'll see the popular "Super Slide" and various children's rides. No need to be afraid here. Our patch focuses on a Fall Harvest theme rather than a Dark and Gloomy theme. School and large groups please make reservations.
