Pumpkin carving on Monument Field before joining Merry-Go-Round Storytelling for slightly spooky tales around the magic tree.
An opportunity to carve the family pumpkin without making a huge mess at home, followed by a magical woodland story.
Spooky Stories
Amanda Kane-Smith from Merry-go-Round Storytelling will be entertaining us with pumpkin stories and twilight tales.
Jamie's Coffee
Returning for another year with coffee, luxury hot chocolate and sweet treats for Halloween.
Further Information
one pumpkin will be provided for each adult ticket, along with the tools you need to create your design. If you would like an additional pumpkin for your group please select the "extra pumpkin" option at the time of booking.
all children under 16 yrs must be accompanied by an adult, who will also need a valid ticket. Please do not book child places if there are no adult places remaining. Children over 16 are counted as adults for ticketing purposes.
remember to dress for the weather; we will be outside for the whole event and it might be wet or muddy. Think hats, gloves, wellies and a warm coat! You may also find it useful to bring a small torch. It probably won't be completely dark when we finish but it will be harder to see under the trees.
there are no facilities at our outside events, but we do have a portable composting toilet for emergencies. Please ask a staff member.
