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.

And if you’re looking for even more recommendations, don’t miss our recent episode about the best fall festivals in our region.
