Halloween events and activities

Halloween events

Our Halloween events and activitiy guide is filled with spooky ideas to help you plan your day out. From witches, haunted houses and pumpkin carving to ghosts and ghouls and plenty of trick or treats! Gone are the days of mammy wrapping you up in a white sheet or black sack- although they were great times too!! There are so many costumes and props available now that it’s a great time of year to experiment and try to outdo the neighbours and friends! Ghoulish make up also adds to the fun!

Our guide also gives you some of the top Halloween camps available where the kids can enjoy all the tricks and treats that Halloween brings.

Halloween parties are becoming ever more popular for families. It’s wonderful to see the innovation and investment being made by so many venues throughout Ireland into these super spooktaculars! Don’t forget that Halloween isn’t just for the kids, there’s also some really scary places to visit for those of you who like a real fright night.
