A new family-friendly Halloween event called Kidzville will open for one day only this week at Lintz Hall Farm in Burnopfield, County Durham, offering a day of entertainment for youngsters during half term.
The event, organised by the team behind the Psycho Path scare trail in partnership with events specialists Let's Party Events, takes place on Thursday, October 29, from 11am to 4pm. It is designed for children and their families, with an action-packed programme of entertainment.
What to expect at Kidzville
Visitors can enjoy five specially created stage shows by Let's Party Events, featuring songs from best-loved musicals, tributes to K-Pop, and Techno Ravers, a sensory experience that remixes nursery rhymes and party classics with techno beats. Creative stations, face painting, fairground rides and street food will also be available.
Young attendees will receive an LED glow stick and have the chance to meet a range of characters, access the Creative Cove activity zone and the Cosy Cauldron Lair. Fancy dress is encouraged, with prizes for the best costumes. Tickets are still on sale, with prices starting at £14.
