The Great Jack O'Lantern Blaze Long Island, like the original Van Cortlandt Manor location, is a premier fall event featuring larger-than-life installations, a soundtrack and synchronized lights. From October through November, thousands of hand-carved jack o’lanterns illuminate the incredible landscape surrounding the historic Old Bethpage Village in Old Bethpage, NY.
At this one-of-a-kind event, you’ll find displays of more than 7,000 pumpkins. In years past, themed areas have included dinosaurs, undersea creatures, local landmarks, and monsters from horror classics. This year boasts a 25-foot Statue of Liberty, a fire truck, witches stirring up a spell, and a brand new Headless Horsemen. There will be installations specifically honoring this new Long Island location, such as a lunar module and a lighthouse.
