RICHMOND, Va. The Scotts Addition Pumpkin Festival returns this year after a smashing success in 2013.

There will again be goodies prepared by local restaurants, craft beer, music, and lots of kids activities.

Last year over 10,000 attended the festival, which was the first in decades to close down the popular thoroughfare of the Boulevard.

This year we have expanded the area a little bit, weve added a VIP zone, said Brook Stone, the event chairman for the Scotts Addition Business Association.Weve added a larger kids zone, with more kids activities and a larger space.

Movin Mania, which is Bon Secours childhood obesity program, is a key sponsor of the event.

We feel the pumpkin festival is a family-friendly event, said Tunstall Bagley-Willis, the Movin Mania Coordinator for Bon Secours.

Tunstan Bagley-Willis, Broc (short for Broccoli) and Brook Stone talk about the upcoming Pumpkin Festival.

For kids, expect crafts, music, interactive opportunities and the mobile Class A Room will be on site providing healthy treats and fun snacks.

Weve also added our biggest feature, which is our Family Movie Night, at the Bon Secours Washington Redskins Training Center immediately following the event, said Stone.

The festival runs from noon to 6 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 25, and immediately following the event families can head over for movie night. A double-feature will air starting with Its The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown, followed by Monsters, Inc.
