Haunted Half Term at Blenheim Palace

Treat the kids to a day out at Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire this October half term and join in the ghoulish daytime Halloween activities.

One of the highlights will be Zoolab’s Potions Show in the Walled Garden. Find yourself face to face with tarantulas, snakes, frogs and giant snails! Then head off on the Perilous Potion Quest and learn about the vegetables growing in the kitchen garden and the little creatures that like them! If you can work out the secret word, you will receive a special certificate.

Other activities include a Family Circus Show and Circus Workshop, spooky Mask-Making and Pip and Posy Storytelling sessions. Look out for Bumblemore the stilt-walking wizard who will be greeting visitors as they explore.

Families with older children may enjoy the evening Halloween Trail (23rd October-2nd November). Encounter huge looming skeletons and ghostly lights as you make your way through the darkness to find a medieval dungeon, giant spiderwebs, a cursed tomb and more.

Book tickets in advance.

Please see Blenheim Palace’s website for the full schedule and to book.
