A Record-Breaking Pumpkin Triumphs in Europe

Mario van Geel from Belgium has claimed the title of European champion with his astounding 1,152-kilogram pumpkin. This impressive specimen, part of the Atlantic Giant variety, exemplifies the extraordinary achievements in giant pumpkin cultivation.

The annual exhibition at Blühende Barock in Ludwigsburg showcases these remarkable pumpkins, which are typically weighed before being transformed into culinary delights or artistic carvings at the slaughter festival and carving festival. While last year's victor, Luca Stöckl from Bavaria, has now been surpassed, van Geel's champion pumpkin will not be carved or divided.

Instead, it will return to Belgium for further competition, highlighting the competitive nature of this unique agricultural pursuit. With participants from several European countries, the event celebrates the artistry and dedication involved in growing these colossal pumpkins.
