"Surviving the COVID-19 pandemic through the continued support and spirit of the community, Mr. Bones is bringing back the holiday fun and excitement for 2021," owners said, adding that Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Los Angeles County health guidelines and will be followed at the site.
In 2020, due to the pandemic, Mr. Bones canceled its annual attraction and briefly toyed with the idea of at-home delivery and virtual events, before scrapping those plans, as well.
The pumpkin patch first launched in 1987 on Doheny Drive in West Hollywood, before relocating for larger accommodations a few years ago to the West LA College site.
