)
This year, Dublin City Council's Halloween Festivities celebrate with Stoker's Spooktacular in Marino Crescent Park on Friday 30 October. Four more events run across the weekend, a short hop up the Malahide Road or out to Donaghmede.
Stoker's Spooktacular, Marino Crescent Park
Friday 30 October, 5pm to 8pm · Marino Crescent Park, Marino, Dublin 3
Expect spooky trails, storytelling, face painting and a movie screening, with more surprises promised on the night.
Children must be accompanied by an adult.
Double bill at Father Collins Park, Donaghmede
Friday 30 October · Father Collins Park, Hole in the Wall Road, Donaghmede
Two separate events on the same day, so check which one suits your crew.
Little monsters, 2pm to 4pm. An afternoon for younger children, with storytelling, face painting, a movie screening and plenty more.
The nightmare begins, 5pm to 7pm. Once the sun goes down, the park turns sinister. Scare rooms and other frights await anyone brave enough to enter. This one is for over-12s only.
Monster Mash, May Park
Saturday 31 October, 1pm to 4pm · May Park, Malahide Road, Dublin 5
Expect storytelling, face painting, a DJ, magical performances and much more, so bring the costumes and come ready to dance.
Children must be accompanied by an adult.
Edenmore Fireworks Display
Saturday 31 October, 8pm · Edenmore Park, Edenmore Crescent, Donaghmede, Dublin 5
The weekend ends with a bang on Halloween night, as fireworks light up the sky over Edenmore Park. It's a safe, organised alternative to back-garden bangers, and a great way to round off the weekend.
Children must be accompanied by an adult.
