11am: Dragons & Wizards
Berkeley Castle
27th - 30th October (half term)
Brand new to 2024, Dragons & Wizards at Berkeley Castle!
Guests can come face-to-face with a giant dragon this Halloween at Berkeley Castle! With a whole range of mythical activities throughout the day ensuring everyone has a legendary day out.
Visitors will have the opportunity to meet baby dragons, and learn of their unique origin - before seeing if they have what it takes to tame the giant dragon (and perhaps even grab a photo).
Don't forget to stop by Wizard School where younger guests will have the chance to play games with our visiting wizard as they give you a crash-training course on how to be the ultimate wizard and tame those dragons!

11am: Free Halloween Pumpkin Carving
Yate Shopping Centre
The challenge is on to think about creating scary and spooky faces ready for the annual Yate Shopping Centre pumpkin carving event on Halloween.
From 11am until 3pm, while stocks last, children will be able to join the free fun in the Centre’s Central Square. Each child will be eligible for a single free pumpkin.
Andrew Lowrey, Yate Shopping Centre Manager: “The standards get higher each year at this traditional event and it’s obvious that many children, given the notice, put a lot of thought into what they are going to do prior to the day. It’s always a popular half-term occasion and this year will no doubt be as much fun as ever. It will be first come, first served whilst the pumpkins last.
