If your perfect fall day involves getting lost in a giant corn maze, picking pumpkins and spending hours at a farm, one Nova Scotia spot is bringing back more than 30 attractions this season.
RiverBreeze Farm in Upper Onslow, just outside Truro, is hosting its annual Fall Festival beginning September 19, 2026.
The huge seasonal attraction includes a giant corn maze, U-pick pumpkin patch, wagon rides, farm animals, jumping pillows, giant slides and dozens of other activities spread across the property.
And this year is an especially big one for the farm.
RiverBreeze is celebrating its 25th anniversary with a brand-new corn maze theme and expanded facilities.
There Are More Than 30 Attractions
This isn’t just a pumpkin patch where you stop in, grab a pumpkin and leave.
RiverBreeze says its Fall Festival includes more than 30 attractions for visitors to explore.
Some of the activities include:
🌽 Giant corn maze
🎃 U-pick pumpkin patch
🚜 Wagon rides
🐐 Petting zoo
🦘 Kangaroos
🛝 Giant slides
🤸 Jumping pillows
🐄 Cow train rides
⚽ Human foosball

🎯 Hillbilly Shootin’ Gallery
🛞 Hamster wheel games
There are also plenty of other activities scattered around the farm, making it easy to spend most of the day there.
The Giant Corn Maze Has A Mystery Hidden Inside
One of RiverBreeze’s biggest fall attractions is its giant corn maze.
For 2026, the maze is themed around the farm’s 25th anniversary.
Visitors can also play a Who Dunnit? mystery game while making their way through the maze.
There are six clue stations hidden inside, and guests can collect clues along the way before trying to solve the mystery.
So you’re basically getting a giant corn maze and a scavenger hunt at the same time.
You Can Pick Your Own Pumpkin
The U-pick pumpkin patch opens on weekends in October.
Visitors can head directly into the patch to find their own pumpkin while exploring the farm’s other fall attractions.
Between the pumpkin patch, corn maze and photo opportunities around the property, this could also be one of the cutest spots for fall photos in Nova Scotia.
There Are Farm Animals Too
RiverBreeze also has a petting zoo and several animal experiences.
Visitors can meet farm animals throughout the property, including goats and even kangaroos.
The farm also has its Holey Goats attraction, along with other animal areas that younger visitors can check out throughout the day.
There Are Tons Of Fall Treats
You’ll probably want to arrive hungry.
The farm’s food options include classic festival favourites like burgers, hot dogs, poutine and chicken tenders.
There are also plenty of sweeter options including kettle corn, cotton candy, lemonade and homemade fudge.
And if you really want to commit to the fall fair food experience, RiverBreeze also serves deep-fried Oreos.
The Festival Runs Through Fall
RiverBreeze Fall Festival opens September 19 and runs on Saturdays, Sundays and Thanksgiving Monday.
The farm lists its 2026 season through November 1, with hours from 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Last entry is at 3 p.m.
The event is weather dependent, so visitors should check for updates before heading to the farm.
Children three and under can enter for free.
RiverBreeze Is Just Outside Truro
RiverBreeze Farm is located in Upper Onslow, just minutes outside Truro.
The family-run farm has become known for its seasonal attractions throughout the year, but fall is easily one of its biggest seasons.
With a giant corn maze, pumpkin picking, farm animals and more than 30 attractions in one place, it could easily become an entire fall day trip.
So if you’re building your Nova Scotia fall bucket list, you might want to leave a full afternoon for this one.
