Spooky family fun is coming to Busch Gardens Williamsburg in the Count’s Spooktacular Halloween event.

Every Saturday and Sunday from October 5 – 27, 2019, children aged 9 and under can dress up in their favourite Halloween costume and enjoy exploring the park’s newly-themed hay maze as they encounter much-loved Sesame Street characters also adorning Halloween costumes.

Young visitors can participate in a Halloween dance party, enjoy some spooky entertainment at the Countdown to Halloween show, visit trick-or-treat stations and witness interactive performances carried out by the Count and his friends.

Other Halloween-themed fun at Count’s Spooktacular include a Monsters and Fairies event, where families can join Elmo and Cadabby for colouring, mask making, costume dancing and more.

More craft making and searching for ghosts in the hay maze can be enjoyed by little ones at the Super Grover event.

Bert and Ernie will host a Pirate Party, with plenty of dancing, colouring and searching for ghosts in the hay maze will take place.

Rosita will show off her fiesta Halloween costume in the Rosita’s Halloween Fiesta event, where youngsters will have fun searching for Mardi Gras in the hay maze.

Count’s Spooktacular takes place from 11am to 5pm at the weekends from October 5 – 27.
