Elizabeth Gate - Main gate admission

Kew Gardens, Elizabeth Gate, Richmond.

Friday 18 October to Sunday 3 November 2024

A trail filled with spooky fun for everyone.

Brought to you by the producers of Christmas at Kew, this brand-new, after-dark Halloween trail is filled with so many hidden surprises. Join family and friends to wander from dusk into darkness between one ghostly space to another. 

How to book:
1. Choose your date
2. Choose your entry gate and time slot. Prices may vary.
3. Choose Brentford Gate to book car parking. Limited availablilty.

Daylight – sessions up to 6pm. Most suitable for very young ones who need to get back home to bed early!
Twilight – sessions from 6pm – 7.30pm. The scare level ramps up a notch.
Moonlight – sessions after 7.30pm. As scary as it gets (but still suitable for all)

If you are a Kew member, to access your discount on adult tickets, you will need to enter your unique membership number in the appropriate box after selecting an entry date and time.
