Pumpkins, pumpkins... Pumpkin Festival in Ivanić-Grad

Hi everyone!

It's pumpkin time. :o) In next couple days it will be all about pumpkins here on my blog. :o)

Pumpkin Festival in Ivanić-Grad (Bučijada) is an annual festival celebrating pumpkins, held during 3rd weekend in October. This year was 14th year in a row the festival was held. I was so happy it was while my stay in Ivanić-Grad. Good food, artistic installations, exhibitions, concerts ... and a lot of dear people. I had a wonderful time. :o)

Today I want to share with you some photos I took with my cellphone camera during Pumpkin Festival.

I visited a Pumpkin installations exhibition in town park with a friend and her son.

Saturday, October 20th 2018

I spent most of the day with my nieces, Tea and Nika. ♥

We visited the Pumpkin installations exhibition.

We admired origami sculptures handmade by local crafter and visited the museum.

We went to a Mushroom Exhibition.

We played and fooled around, they rid horse and pony, we jumped on a trampoline... it was an amazing afternoon. ♥

I finished my pumpkin day on a concert of my favorite Croatian band, T.B.F. :o)

Thank you for stopping by and your kind feedback. Enjoy and smile!
