About the event

Join the team at Lackford Lakes in celebrating this spooky evening!

THIS EVENT IS RUNNING ON 28TH AND 29TH OCTOBER. TICKETS FOR BOTH DAYS CAN BE BOOKED ON THIS PAGE BELOW. PLEASE READ THE BOOKING INFORMATION CAREFULLY.

Come and explore the reserve after dark and get involved with some spooky nature-themed activities to discover the creatures of the night!

Following the trail, you will get the opportunity to see the Lakes in a whole new way and of course fancy dress is encouraged!

Activities include:

Tin can bug hotel- upcycle your tin can to put out in your garden and create a home for insects. *Bring your own tin can!*

Owl pellet dissection - explore the curious diet of this beloved bird.

Torch lit bug hunting- see what bugs can be found using our red light torches. Have a look at our moth trap and see the moths in action.

Bat detectors - what bats can be found at the Lakes? We will guide you through how to use a bat detector to listen out for the bats flying around.

Skull handling - get up close and personal to find out which animal they belong to

Plus get creative at our clay creature station!

All activities are included in your ticket.

The event is recommended for 6+ due to the 'spooky' nature and is VERY dark between activities so please bring a torch! This is an outdoor event so wrap up warm and dress for the weather.

The café and toilets will be open on the night. If you would like a takeaway drink to take round the trail, please bring a reusable cup.
