Hey Pumpkin Fest Fiends, With the Padres potential continuation into post-season play, the Great Pumpkin Beer Festival will be taking a hiatus for 2022 to root for our home team. The event will return in 2023 for a twice as epic gourd-centered celebration. The event venue lies just a few blocks away from Petco Park and with the uncertainty of a potential Padres home game conflicting with GPBF, we have been tossed some rotten apples and impassable uncertainties. This October, we will cheer for our beloved home team knowing we will meet again in 2023. If you had already purchased tickets, your full ticket refund including service fees is being processed and will show in your account within 7 business days.
