This Hallowe'en, go back to a time of true traditions, superstitions, and lore!
Dare to be different and delve into the history of our spookiest season. Discover how the people of rural Ulster celebrated Hallowe'en traditions centuries ago, and how the same traditions were carried across to America - before becoming the Hallowe'en we know and love today!
Listen to tales of lore and misfortune, give barn dancing a go, dress up as a scarecrow, and taste delicious Hallowe'en fayre like barmbrack and apple tart. Get involved with crafts, face-painting, and family-friendly activities plus a Hallowe'en trail for little ones to follow.
Don’t forget to keep your eyes peeled…as you never know what you will find as you walk the Park!
