Bristol Zoo Halloween Festival

27 – 31 October...

Bristol Zoo's Halloween festival starts on Saturday 27 October, when youngsters can follow a Halloween trail around the Zoo.

A zoo spokesman said:

"Solve clues to find the missing word and be rewarded with a ghoulishly tasty treat. Children will be spellbound with mysterious tales at our spooky storytelling and, if that's not enough, then scary face painting* will be available throughout the five-day Halloween festival.

"On Wednesday 31 October, join our creepy costume contest and carved pumpkin competition to be in with a chance of winning a range of prizes. Any child with a carved pumpkin can enter the zoo for the reduced rate of £5 before 12 noon on Wednesday 31 October."
