Get ready for Pumpkins on the Bridge – Halloween at Bynum Front Porch on Fri, Oct 31, 3pm-11pm  at the historic Bynum Bridge. As the sky starts to turn that perfect Carolina gold, the real magic begins. Neighbors carry their jack-o’-lanterns to the old Bynum Bridge, closed to cars, wide open to everyone.

One by one, candles flicker to life, and the bridge begins to glow with hundreds of orange faces—some grinning, some spooky, some just plain silly. The reflections shimmer on the Haw River below, ripples of firelight dancing downstream while the night hums with laughter, music, and crickets.

And don’t worry about supper… Dan’s Dogs will be right there, serving up hot dogs, while Tacos Paraiso fills the air with the smell of the very best burritos in the state of North Carolina. Grab a paper plate, fill your belly, and wander back to the bridge as the pumpkins take over the night. So come on out as the sun sets. Bring your pumpkin, bring your people, and watch the glow spread across the water. And if it warms your heart (it will), toss a few dollars to the Bridge Fairies of Bynum Front Porch, the good souls who keep this tradition glowing year after year.
