Oh no! The wicked witch has cast a dreadful spell on the garden, turning all the plants poisonous!
The only way to break the curse and bring the garden back to life is by solving a magical mystery.
Follow the trail through the spooky garden and look out for the hidden letters on the 3D posters.
Piece them together to reveal the secret toxic word−only then can you speak the magic word and lift the witch's wicked spell!
Friends of the Swiss Garden Present: Halloween Haunt 2024
Join us on this chilling October night as we take a spooky stroll through the Swiss Garden. Meet our after-dark residents, four storytellers waiting in the grounds, each ready to tell you their part of a brand-new story.
As you follow the trail, you'll discover what's trapped in the garden - just make sure it's not you! And be warned, there may be a few surprises along the way...
Tickets to our garden event also include a glow stick bracelet - perfect to ward off anything creepy - and fancy dress is encouraged!
Biggleswade community carnival are pleased to host our annual Halloween party, this year with a difference!!!
A fun workshop to get your kiddos in the spooky mood, during this time they will make Halloween themed masks of their choice! Perfect to help them decide what they would like to dress up as this Halloween. We ask that adults stay with their child during this workshop (only 1 adult per family as we unfortunately don't have enough space for multiple) teas + coffee will be supplied.
My first ARTventure is a gentle introduction to the creative fun we have in our weekly classes for babies aged 3-6 months.
This is a relaxed and social session for your baby and you - with music, sensory and creative play, the chance to create first masterpieces and make new friends.
For those aged 3+ with suspected or diagnosed SEND who struggle to follow instruction and need support from a parent/carer to participate.
Spaces are very limited so book now to avoid disappointment!
For those aged 7+ with suspected or diagnosed SEND who are able to participate independently without a parent/carer present and are able to follow instructions.
Spaces are very limited so book now to avoid disappointment!
Put on your best costume and come along for a fun filled day!
There will be spooky games, craft, dancing and lots more!
Children aged 4+ are welcome.
There will be a prize for the best dressed!
Our Halloween disco is set to be a lot of fun, we have the lights, the music and the spookiness, we just need you to bring the moves.
We will have great time dancing, playing party games. There will be a quiet area too where you can get tattoos, and do some craft if your dancing legs are worn out.
Lots of Halloween creative fun for ages 6m - 8yrs.
Tons of paint, crafts and sensory play and some singing and dancing too!
*UPDATE* Sadly Baby Broadway is no longer taking place on 17th October and so tickets are not available as a prize. The competition will run again in December ahead of the rescheduled show date.
Any entries already received will go into a prize draw and three lucky winners will receive a Pocket Library Pack.

"We've just completed the 3 week taster class option that Jason runs in Biggleswade. There's a really lovely atmosphere in the sessions and the pace is just right allowing Mum to follow along and wrangle baby all at the same time! The social time at the end is a great component and makes the session well worth the effort on a Monday morning! Plus Jason makes a mean hot chocolate too! "
