Tualatin Lake at the Commons

Discover the unique and delightful West Coast Giant Pumpkin Regatta, a cherished local tradition since 2004 that takes place every October at the Tualatin Commons. This one-of-a-kind event features a series of entertaining races where costumed participants navigate massive pumpkins across the tranquil waters of Tualatin Commons Lake. The festivities begin the day before the races with the Pumpkins and Pints event at Stickmen Brewing, where the excitement starts to build with an official pumpkin weigh-off. The following day, enjoy a full schedule of fun as pumpkin paddlers steer their enormous gourd vessels through the lake, creating a spectacle you won’t want to miss. Join us for a fun-filled celebration of creativity, community, and the spirit of competition!
