Patriots and Pumpkins
This weekend, Oct. 24-25, is Fall Harvest Weekend at Patriot Place, featuring two days of free family activities that will keep everyone smiling. Highlights include a Rainforest Reptile Show, petting zoo, a Center for the Performing Arts Dance Show, and live music from the Rock the Plaza series. In addition to these events, Patriot Place will offer pumpkin painting, a Halloween bubble show featuring The Bubble Music Man and his fun-filled hour of music, interactivity and bubbles featuring Halloween favorites like the Monster Mash and Purple People Eater, and of course, safe and fun trick or treating from all of Patriot Place's retailers.
In addition to the free activities (oh, did I mention the magic words -- Bounce House?), visitors can also visit The Hall at Patriot Place, enjoy a movie at Showcase Cinema de Lux, or visit the CBS Scene restaurant , where Patriots fans can gather to watch the team’s historic game in London on Sunday, Oct. 25 at 1 p.m. For more information, visit online.
