Kew Gardens, with its historic glasshouses and sprawling botanical landscape, becomes an atmospheric backdrop for Halloween. This year’s special event is a ticketed, after-dark trail separate from regular day admission.
The Halloween at Kew trail requires a separate ticket; your regular daytime garden admission ticket does not cover the evening trail.
Yes, there is limited capacity with timed entry slots to manage the flow of visitors and ensure the trail remains safe and enjoyable.
Yes, the event is suitable for all ages, but the scare-factor increases with later time-slots (Daylight to Moonlight), so choose according to your child’s comfort.
The trail runs in all standard conditions, but if the event is cancelled due to safety concerns (e.g., extreme weather), visitors will be offered an alternative date. Any decision to cancel that evening’s trail will be made by 2pm. General refunds are not provided simply for bad weather.
If cancellation is announced, then an alternative date will be offered. Otherwise, tickets are strictly non-refundable and cannot be exchanged unless you transfer up to 7 days before your original booking.
Yes, you can add a daytime garden ticket at reduced cost if you wish, but your Halloween trail ticket remains separate, and you must exit the Gardens at the required time before re-entering for the evening slot.
No, pets are not permitted. Assistance dogs are allowed with the proper ID.
