Redditch Borough Council is hosting a free Halloween Light Trail at Morton Stanley Park on Saturday 24 October. The event runs from 5pm until 10pm and features glowing pathways, shimmering trees and spectral projections throughout the park.

Visitors will encounter several Halloween-themed experiences, including new attractions called 'Sinister Spinster' and 'Groaning Bark Forest'. The trail uses immersive visual installations to transform the park after dark.

What to expect

Interactive photo opportunities are dotted along the trail, and residents are encouraged to wear Halloween costumes. A funfair with rides and a 'Trick or Treat Street Food Court' will operate alongside the light trail.

Cllr. Matt Dormer, Leader of Redditch Borough Council with responsibility for leisure, said: "We're excited to see the return of the Halloween Light Trail and all the excitement it brings. The event offers something a little different, combining spectacular visual effects with plenty of Halloween fun to create an unforgettable evening for visitors of all ages."
