Maxwell's Pumpkin Patch Ticket Portal

FAQs / Help

Where are you located?

Enter Maxwell Concrete into Google Maps – 22 Folliard Rd, Castlederg, Co Tyrone, BT81 7JW.  This business is attached to the farm where the event is held. We will have plenty of pumpkin patch signs around locally and further afield, please don’t mistake these for the event address!

What are your opening times?

Please look at the available dates and session times for our various events on the booking site as these can change at short notice as we add or remove dates

How long will our visit last?

Your ticket covers you for a session of 45 minutes to allow for arrival and departure with 30 minutes on the patch - this is to ensure everyone can enjoy the event without over-crowding, whilst maintaining Covid health and safety rules.  You can only stay at the patch for the duration of your session, it is therefore better value for money if you arrive near the start time shown on your ticket this ensures allocated numbers per session and car-parking spaces.

Do I need to book to come to visit the Pumpkin Patch?

Due to Covid-19 the event will be ticket only – everyone visiting (excluding babies in arms) will require a ticket to access the patch.  You will not be permitted entry to the site without a prebooked ticket.

Can I cancel or change my booking?

Once you have booked your tickets, they are not transferable and non-refundable. If we have to close the patch due to extreme weather or stock availability, we will issue you a refund and you will have to book tickets for a different day yourself.

Who can I bring?

Everyone welcome – babies, kids, teens (go on, you will have FUN) grandparents, and even the dog but please make sure they are on a lead at all times.

How much does it cost?

Pumpkin prices can vary from early to late season, whether the growing season has been favourable or not affects yield and therefore supply availability can be affected. Ticket prices are subject to change as we move to meet fluctuations in supply costs and availability.  Up-to-date prices are shown on our booking page.

Will it be mucky?

Yes, with the Northern Irish weather this will happen! Wellies are the best type of footwear and protect your lower legs from muck slatter – this will happen! We have boot washing facilities upon exiting the field to the carpark.  The terrain makes it unsuitable for prams, buggies or pushchairs.

What shall I bring?

Wellies or boots for everyone, a warm jacket or waterproof coat or brolly and a backpack for dropping your purse and phone into. We provide netted produce bags for carrying your pumpkins.

Do you take card payments?

We only accept cash at the event as we do not have card facilities.

What facilities are there?

We have parking, toilets, one of which is disabled, food and beverages. There will be toilets available but we ask that you only use these if necessary and make sure you use hand sanitiser before and after use.

Can we bring wheelchairs?

The Pumpkin Patch is open farmland, regretfully making it unsuitable for wheelchairs or pushchairs.  N.B. To comply with event insurance - due to event traffic we regret that we no longer can offer parking for disabled access, drop-offs, or any other form of pedestrian access via the security gates adjacent to the food trucks. Ground conditions are soft underfoot especially during poor weather.

Is there parking?

We have plenty of hard-core parking, please drive slowly upon entering and exiting the site.  Driving, parking, vehicles, and their contents are entirely at the owner's own risk, we take no responsibility for damages.

What about the weather?

We will only close if extreme weather conditions make it unsafe to open and we will let our customers know via social media – we will not close due to rain or temperature – this is an outdoor event.

Are pumpkins good to eat?

Yes! There are loads of recipes online…mmm pumpkin soup.
