About

When the nights grow darker and the pumpkins start to glow, there’s only one question to ask: Who ya gonna call? This Halloween, the Ghostbusters are heading to CarrickFEARgus with an interactive show that brings their ghost-zapping world to life.

But that’s just the beginning. Roll up your sleeves for gooey slime making, and join Jump Jiggle and Jive for the high-energy UV Glow Party.

Fire performers will light up the night as you make your way through the park and encounter some of the most mischievous walkabout characters and frightfully fun friends. Don’t forget to bring your best dance moves to party alongside Wednesday Addams at her deadly disco.

Try your luck at carnival games and then jump right into the messy play stations full of splashes, squishes, and spooky surprises.

So gather your little ghouls, dress for the occasion, and step into a Halloween celebration you won’t want to miss

This is a ticket only event with fixed time slots – information to follow.

There will be a ticketed relaxed session from 17:00 - 18:00
