Get ready for a spooktacular Halloween adventure in Hertfordshire! This October half term, we’re inviting all our little witches, ghosts, and wizards to Knebworth Gardens for three days of magical family fun.
From Tuesday 28th to Thursday 30th October 2025, families can enjoy a morning packed full of Halloween activities, games, and treats, specially designed for children aged 3 to 10 years old. Sessions run from 9.30am to 12.30pm and 1pm to 4pm giving families plenty of time to explore the gardens and soak up the autumn atmosphere.
?️ A Halloween Adventure for All the Family
There’s so much to see and do during your visit! Children can take part in a series of Halloween-themed games throughout the Gardens, including:
- ? Hungry Ghosts
- ? Hook a Pumpkin
- ? What’s in the Box?
- ? Pumpkin Putting
Each completed game earns a stamp on your Pumpkin Passport, and once it’s full, children can exchange it for a special Halloween prize.
For those feeling brave, the much-loved Terror Tunnel will also be returning this year — a firm favourite with families looking for just the right amount of spooky fun!
? Seasonal Treats at the Garden Terrace Tea Room
After all that excitement, pop into the Garden Terrace Tea Room for a delicious autumnal bite. Enjoy Halloween sweet treats, homemade soups, and freshly made sandwiches.
You can also pre-book a Children’s Halloween Lunch Box, which includes:
? A sandwich, Halloween biscuit, drink, fruit, and Pom Bears.
? Priced at £6.25 online or £6.75 on the day.
? Pumpkin Carving Competition
Show off your creativity in our Pumpkin Carving Competition! Bring your pre-carved pumpkin from home and place it in our Pumpkin Parking area when you arrive. Judging will take place 30 minutes before the end of each session and of course, you’ll be able to take your pumpkin home again afterwards.
?♀️ Dress to Impress
Fancy dress is highly encouraged! Whether you’re a scary skeleton, friendly ghost, or sparkly fairy, we can’t wait to see your Halloween costumes.
