Thrills for the whole family at Paultons Park this Halloween and Christmas

Tickets on sale now for Paultons Park’s Halloween and Christmas events

Paultons Park, the UK’s number one family theme park and home to Peppa Pig World, guarantees festive thrills for all the family with the return of its Halloween Spooktacular and Celebration of Christmas events.

The entire park, including Peppa Pig World, is transformed with thousands of pumpkins and Halloween-themed decorations from Thursday 17th October to Monday 4th November 2024.

The park’s spooky makeover is complemented with frightfully fun shows and interactive experiences, including the all-singing and dancing The Great Halloween Mystery Show. New for 2024, the Spirit Squad Ghoul School, teaches younger guests secret moves and ghost-busting grooves, perfect for dancing along to spooky music at The Little Monsters Ball.

Enjoy the spectacle of Paultons Park at dusk with late-night openings on Tuesday 29th, Wednesday 30th, and Thursday 31st October 2024.

James Mancey, deputy managing director at Paultons Park, said: “Halloween is one of our favourite dates in the Paultons Park diary as we strive to create the friendliest, most frightful, family Halloween experience in the UK. Children and parents alike love the park’s spooky transformation and decorations. Our team works hard to deliver a value-for-money Halloween experience that guests will remember for years to come.”

Paultons Park transforms into a magical Christmas wonderland for its popular Celebration of Christmas event from Friday 6th December to Monday 23rd December 2024. Illuminations and decorations adorn the attraction, and at Peppa Pig World, Peppa and her friends dress up in their Christmas outfits for the season. A special Christmas menu is available at selected food and drink outlets across the park.

Santa’s Magical Wish Show brings the festive spirit to the Show Stage with heaps of singing and dancing. Popular characters, Billy and Belinda the elves, Frosty the Snowman, Rudolph the Reindeer, and Father Christmas himself, take to the stage for a performance the whole family will love.

Father Christmas welcomes guests to his grotto for family photos and to meet his reindeer, polar bears, and the toy makers who make the season so special. Early booking is advised for Santa’s Grotto to avoid disappointment.

James added: “At Christmas, we bring an extra special touch to the magic of Paultons Park. Families celebrating together is what the festive season is all about. Making memories with Peppa and George in their winter outfits and stopping off to meet Santa in his grotto are some of my favourite Christmas moments at the park.”

Paultons has recently been recognised for having the lowest ride wait times* of any UK family theme park in 2024, with data showing that queues are 50% shorter at Paultons Park than at other attractions. The park’s newest attraction Splash Lagoon, the family-friendly water boat ride situated in the dinosaur-themed world Lost Kingdom, opened in May this year.
