October Events And Things To Do

Take a stroll around your chosen wetland centre and your eyes peeled for different challenges and activities. Will you dare to put your hand in the snake box, take a selfie with a bat or even get close to a toad?

Millions of bulbs and displays stretch for over six miles along the promenade, creating a breathtaking sight that attracts visitors from all around the world. The displays include various themes, from undersea adventures to space odysseys, and even famous characters and symbols.

The trail theme for 2023 is ‘Folklore and Fairy tales’. So get your inner detective working and see if you can complete all the challenges. Have fangtastic fun racing on a broom, try to spot the differences, solve puzzles and much more!

Then, get ready to be spooked at the storytelling sessions with a creepy castle backdrop!

See owls fly above you, get creative carving pumpkins and become a mini tractor driver. Then, can you solve the puzzle on the outdoor trail to find the giant pumpkins? There’s a treat in store for those that can!

Before you go head out On a Drive Through Safari. Be amazed at big cats, wolves and many more animals!

Pop on a cosy sweater and enjoy lots of laughter as the kids play at the patch. There’s usually a sweet smell of fresh hay and maybe some yummy snacks like hot cider or donuts. Don’t forget to take cute pictures with the pumpkins! It’s a great way to enjoy the autumn season and find the perfect pumpkin for carving or decorating your home.
