Denver Downs Farm's Giant Corn Maze & Pumpkin Patch opens Sept. 25, with this year's maze featuring a Clemson-USC Football theme. The fall family festival will be open every Saturday and Sunday ( and some Fridays) through Oct. 31, and includes activities for all ages including hay rides, farm football, a hay barn with giant hay bale climbing.

The annual Corn Maze & Giant Pumpkin Patch is held at Denver Downs Farm, a Century Farm on Hwy. 76 one mile north of Interstate 85 in Anderson. The Garrison family has owned and operated the 900-acre farm since 1872.

After finding their way through the 12-acre corn labyrinth, visitors can explore a variety of games and activities that include a cow train, duck races, corn ball volley, corn cannon, goat walk, a giant slide, children's zip-line, and a giant pick your own pumpkin patch. Special events planned during the month long festival include Clemson Day at the Maze on Oct. 17, and a Pumpkin Festival on Oct. 30 that features pumpkin bowling, the Pumpkin Princess Pageant and a Strong Man Pumpkin Wagon Pull.

Admission to the annual Corn Maze & Giant Pumpkin Patch is $15 per person. Children 24 months and under get in free. The festival is open Saturdays and Sundays from Sept. 23 until Oct. 31, and the last three Fridays in October. Hours are: Saturdays 10 a.m. until 10 p.m.; Sundays 1 p.m. until 6 p.m.; and 5 p.m. until 10 p.m. on Oct. 15, Oct. 22 and Oct. 29.
