Yorkshire Wildlife Park is preparing for its spook-tacular Halloween extravaganza. The Scarefest will run from Saturday, October 25 – Sunday, November 2.
Visitors to the award-winning park can enjoy a line-up of Halloween events, including live shows, a Trick or Treat trail, freaky fairground rides and costumed characters. All of the entertainment is included in the entry price to the park, apart from the fairground rides and the Trick or Treat trail, which is an extra £6 per child.
John Minion, Yorkshire Wildlife Park CEO, said: “We are looking forward to putting on our annual Halloween event and welcoming new and returning guests to enjoy the entertainment. This year, we have organised a Trick or Treat trail. Five Halloween characters will be hiding in huts round the park. Once they have been found, they will hand out a treat. The children need to collect five treats to complete the trail.
“It will definitely be a week filled with the usual family fun, spooky activities and things that go bump in the night. Guests can also explore our walking dead woodlands and selfie spots, whilst looking out for other the creepy characters, who will be roaming round the park and woods.”
Shows include Victor’s Halloween Adventure, Red Riding Hood Mini Panto and Monster Boogie Live. In between shows, guests can visit some of the park’s incredible and endangered species, including amur leopards, giraffes, polar bears and black rhinos.
