Spooktacular fun this half term! Carve a pumpkin, try a treat cooked on the fire, whittle a wand, mix magic potions, and complete the trail!
About this Event

Our popular spooktacular day of fun at Fingringhoe Wick is back with lots of activities for you to try! 
Think of your best design and use the tools we provide to carve your own pumpkin. We will even take care of the clearing up - or you can bring a tub to take your pumpkin flesh home to make a pumpkin-flavoured treat!


Each ticket includes 1 pumpkin. You can even try a delicious pumpkin treat cooked over the fire. Get creative and use peelers to whittle a magical wand. Mix and grind smelly, natural ingredients to concoct a magic potion of your own. Explore the reserve to find all the hidden wooden pumpkins.


Tickets need to be purchased in advance, but you can turn up any time between 10.30 am and 3 pm to complete the activities. Please check in at the visitor centre on arrival before heading to the activities. All activities, apart from the trail, will be paused between 12 pm and 1 pm to allow for a staff lunch break and for activities to be reset ready for the afternoon.
All children must be accompanied by an adult.  Please come dressed for the weather as all the activities will be based outside. 


Please find our booking terms and conditions here
