This Halloween event will have visitors taking part in a number of fun Halloween activities throughout the Gardens.

Halloween Games
Completing exciting Halloween games such as ‘Hungry Ghosts, ‘Hook a Pumpkin’, ‘Pumpkin Putting’ and ‘What’s in the Box’ in Knebworth Gardens will earn visitors stamps on their Pumpkin Passport. Once full the Pumpkin Passport can been redeemed for a prize. The popular Terror Tunnel will also be back.

Halloween Sculptures
Follow the path through the Wilderness Gardens to find all the wooden Halloween sculptures and characters along the way.

Spell School
Spell School is an interactive experience where children will enter a Halloween Classroom and learn how to create and cast their very own spell with the help of the Knebworth Gardens Wizard and create their very own magic wands! Tickets for this are £2 extra and can be added to your order once you have added a child ticket to your basket. The workshop will last 15 – 20 minutes. Numbers are limited so book early to avoid disappointment.
1 adult per booking may accompany a child into the workshop.

Decorated Pumpkin Competition
Bring a decorated Pumpkin with you and place it in the ‘Pumpkin Parking’ patch on your way into the Gardens. A judge will award a prize to the visitor with the best decorated pumpkin at the end of each session. There will be two age categories, under 6 and 6 and over. Whilst we appreciate parental help, our judges prefer to see Pumpkins decorated by children themselves.

The Garden Terrace Tea Room
The Garden Terrace Tea Room will be open and offering some fantastic Halloween sweet treats as well as a delicious selection of fresh Autumnal soups and sandwiches. You can pre-book a Children’s Halloween Lunch Box and collect from the Tea Room during your visit this will include a Sandwich, Halloween Biscuit, Drink, Fruit, Pom Bears and Halloween themed colouring in).

As always, fancy dress for all ages is encouraged at this event.
