HALLOWEEN FOR THE KIDS! We can now announce that the Trailblazer Halloween Trick or Treat Trail is back for 2024! After not being allowed to put it on for 3 years, last years return of this massive community event was the best one yet and we have been counting down the days for halloween 2024.This all started in 2015 when I had a crazy idea. "Instead of celebrating Halloween going knocking on strangers doors trick or treating, why don't we get 100's of families together all dressed up on one little park, add in some halloween magic and give the kids a night to remember”… so that's just what we did! And we have done it every year since and each year it has got bigger and better.
What is the Trailblazer trick or treat trail exactly? For one night a year Hanover square park in Burley is transformed into the spookiest park in Leeds! We decorate the full park, we wire up a sound system to play spooking music and add lights all around to add a spooky ambience. And it's full of exciting features that are all hand built by our team of volunteers like;
• a spider tunnel
• a spooky graveyard
• a zombie assault course
• scarecrow pumpkin patch
• photo BOOOth to take your spooky selfies
• sweet “operation” table
We even have a freaky fairground for games to win more sweets! Spooky glow stick hoopla, tin can alley, spooky card pairs, nerf shooting range, witches stew and sweet pong to name just a few! Our volunteers get into character for the night and are around the park helping children through the trail and at the attractions, handing out sweets.
Last year sold out, there was 500 people on the park and it was buzzing with excitement. Sounds of children’s laughter, cheers and squeals filled the air. Everyone had a fantastic time and the children made memories to last a lifetime.
All this comes to life through weeks of hard work, time, love and dedication to the event from our wonderful team of volunteers (which is also growing year on year!) This is a not for profit event, the ticket price is in place to pay the council to use the park and to insure the event but also so we can invest more into the event bringing more features, more props, more sweets and more fun every time!
Tickets are just £5 per person and are now available from the website.
Hanover Square Park is in Burley, LS3, just behind Leeds City College, Park Lane Campus off Burley Road.
