Halloween at the Old Hall: The Lost Crystal (a wizard’s quest)
Calling all wicked wizards and wizzy witches! Would you like special access to Tatton Park’s medieval Old Hall this October half term and join in their wizards’ quest to find the lost crystal?
Your Mission: seek out the spellbinding clues, hone your broomstick-flying skills and embark on a quest to recover the lost crystal and restore it to its rightful place! (no wizards or witches will be harmed during this Rusticus adventure, through curious forests and magical theatre). Rusticus theatre company, which has worked with Tatton Park before, turns a walk into an adventure and this open-air Halloween quest promises to be an unmissable family-friendly experience. Set in the unique grounds of the medieval Old Hall, which are usually closed to the public, the 90-minute event is socially distanced throughout and includes a broomstick workshop, interactive theatre, and a self-led trail.
Special spooky savings
There are four quests daily from 26th – 31st October. If you dare to join in, tickets are on sale now at www.tattonpark.org.uk, but magical places are limited. An early bird offer is available until 30th September, and a friends & family ticket saves £2 each for up to 6 witches or wizards.
Pick a pumpkin and meet the farmyard animals
This October half term you’re invited to Tatton Park Farm’s seasonal pumpkin patch. Come along to meet all your farmyard favourites and then it’s off to search for your perfect pumpkin to take home and carve for Halloween. You’ll be picking your own pumpkin from the field, so prepare to get your hands dirty and wear sturdy footwear! All pumpkins need to be pre-ordered when you book your Farm tickets. Go to www.tattonpark.org.uk for more details and to book.
