People’s Park, Ballymena will host once again one of the scariest nights of the year when Hallowena returns with a night full of frighteningly fantastic fun for all the community.


The free event on on Friday 27 October (from 6pm – 8.30pm) will thrill and chill with a packed programme of spooktacular activities for all your little monsters to enjoy!



With a fire juggling display, a fancy dress competition, spooky walkabout characters, a kiddies funfair and live music – there’s something for everyone to enjoy.

Follow the extended spooky illumination trail throughout the park and you will bump into some familiar characters along the way!


You can sink your fangs into some sweet treats or tasty hot food to beat those Halloween hunger pangs. The fun and festivities will finish with a fabulous fireworks finale at 8.15pm.



Wandering ghouls and spine tingling figures will be ready to spook you at every turn with a few hair-raising special additions!


To help with a safe set-up of the site People’s Park will be closed to all members of the public on Friday 27 October until the event starts at 6pm. For everyone’s safety dogs, alcohol or fireworks are not permitted in the park and under 16s must have a responsible adult with them.



Admission is free and no tickets are required.
