BeWILDerwood Announce NEW Twig or Treat Halloween event!

This Halloween, BeWILDerwood is introducing an exciting twist to their beloved Glorious Glowing Lantern Parade. With a magical spin on traditional trick-or-treating, visitors are invited to dress up in their best Halloween costumes and wander along the magical light trail, spotting character doors along the way. As they discover each one, they'll have the chance to say "Twig or Treat" to their favourite BeWILDerwood characters, enjoying a safe, fun-filled trick-or-treating experience like no other.

Twig or Treat at The Glorious Glowing Lantern Parade will run on selected evenings from  12^th October to 3^rd November 2024, with new earlier arrival timeslots added to accommodate families with younger children too! Arrival timeslots begin from 5.30pm to 7.30pm and the event lasts around 1.5 hours.

Visitors are encouraged to dress in their very best Halloween costumes before embarking on their Twig or Treat adventure through the woods. Children will be given their very own glowing lantern to help guide their way along the Halloween trail. Spot sparkly lights, shiny disco balls, BeWILDerbats and a GIANT pumpkin. Plus, enjoy a NEW 10-minute show Twig or Treat Tales at the Storytelling Stage.

As well as the spooktacular new show, visitors will encounter their favourite BeWILDerwood characters hiding behind doors along the trail. The Good Wood Witch, The Thornyclod Spider and Mildred the Crocklebog are among the characters who will be ready to greet them with either a 'twig' or a 'treat.' This delightful twist ensures that every step of the trail is filled with excitement and wonder.

“We’re so excited to introduce Twig or Treat to our visitors this Halloween,” said Lauren Boughey, one of the Park Performance Leads at BeWILDerwood. “Our Halloween event is always so popular with visitors, so this year’s new concept just makes the event bigger and better! We wanted to create a really safe environment for families to enjoy Halloween and avoid the hassle of traditional trick-or-treating! Our team has worked hard to create an experience that’s both fun and spooky, but still very much in keeping with the magic of BeWILDerwood - don’t worry, it’s spooky, not scary! We can’t wait to see families in their best fancy dress exploring the trail, meeting their favourite characters, and enjoying Halloween with us.”

Tickets for Twig or Treat at The Glorious Glowing Lantern Parade are just £14.50 and go on general sale on the 6th of September 2024, with newsletter subscribers already receiving their pre-sale link. It seems this new concept is a hit, with pre-sale tickets selling fast and some dates in high demand!
