Pumpkin competition
Overview
Intro
To mark Halloween, the Château de Villa invites young and old alike to take part in a pumpkin carving competition.
To mark Halloween, the Château de Villa invites young and old alike to take part in a pumpkin carving competition. Entries will be judged on their originality, creativity and quality, taking into account the participants’ ages.
There are two categories: 0–12 years old (accompanied if required) and 13 years and over (on their own). Carvings can be made on site between 2 pm and 5 pm, or brought along ready-made (though that’s not as much fun!). The three best creations in each category will receive a prize. All children dressed up in Halloween costumes will receive a tasty treat.
Programme:
* 2.00 pm – 5.00 pm: On-site carving and submission of entries (please bring your own pumpkin and carving equipment)
*Electric tools or appliances are not permitted*
* From 6.00 pm: Exhibition of all the carvings and complimentary tasting of pumpkin soup
* 6.30 pm: Announcement of the results following the jury’s deliberations
