A blazing Halloween celebration is coming to Drayton Manor this October!
Join us from 10th, 11th, 17th, 18th, 24th October – 1st November for a frightfully fun family event packed with spooky surprises, thrilling rides and not one, but two spectacular fireworks nights.
Little monsters can follow our all-new Trick or Treat Trail, collecting sweet treats from themed locations across the park, snap selfies with mischievous Halloween characters, and enjoy a spook-tacular kids’ trail along the way.
Brave guests can climb aboard the Revenge of the Haunted Express, while everyone can soak up the atmosphere with our end-of-day lake show before the night ignites with dazzling fireworks on selected dates.
Whether you’re here for the sweets, the scares or the spectacular finale, this is Halloween at Drayton Manor like never before.

Will we see anything in the castle this time?

Looking forward to seeing the new version of the haunted express and the trick or treat is round the park!
Doing really good sold out mainlyThe problem you got is as the event only on to 6pm only the last hour will be in the dark on the final week.
So the 5pm closes means that the end of day show can't be seen as it's too bright out (according to socials).
The haunted express is only available the half term week and with the rides closing at 6 the express final ride is at 6:45.
As for the projector show it’s gonna be shown at 6 and 7 that week.
When I was trying to get tickets last time slot was 7:15 on 31st, it is sold out now!
I mean, that's great but what was the point in the projection show yesterday on an early finish. Better off just not showing it IMO
Yeah the 31st is sold out now. I would have thought it would have closed during the 7pm fireworks. The rest of the week have slots.
I’m hoping there be cancellations since they have said if there is the tickets go on sale time will tell. I was like why is the last slots during the fireworks and lake show.
I see they looking at adding more lighting and food offerings for the October half term event.
He has done Drayton Manor a couple of times over the yearsHave the powers that be ever spoken to Spudman? He's based less than 2 miles away from DM.
He's very popular and has a MASSIVE online following.
Seems an obvious combination? Why hasn't it happened?
Wonder if he wasn’t available or the rate Drayton was charging for the site fee wasn’t worth it.
