Your Guide to October 2024 in Pittsburgh
It’s officially October, which means it’s time to bundle up in a sweater and head out to a pumpkin patch — or dress up in an elaborate costume and sip a cocktail that looks like it’s made out of blood. Our team is sharing some of our favorite ways to enjoy Pittsburgh month, from fall hikes to haunted houses to Halloween dance parties. And if you’re looking for even more recommendations, don’t miss our recent episode about the best fall festivals in our region.
