Travel is transformation. How will a stay with @ritzcarlton leave you?

In 1971, the first official pumpkin festival took place, offering prizes for the grower of the "world's largest pumpkin." Today, Half Moon Bay is home to the annual Art & Pumpkin Festival and is widely renowned as the “Pumpkin Capital of the World” because of the abundance of local patches and fall offerings, drawing in visitors from across the world. This weekend, the beloved celebration returns! October 14–15, guests and visitors will be delighted by the 51st Annual Art & Pumpkin Festival complete with entertainment, art exhibitions, and pumpkin spiced everything.
