The spooky Yorkshire Wildlife Park is where to find mythical beast and
creepy characters during a Halloween-themed carnival this weekend
The award-winning park will transform into a Day of the Dead-inspired
mystical world with a cast of thrilling events this weekend.
The spooky goings on include live shows with professional actors and the
chance to get hands-on with crafts and games.
“We can’t wait for all of our visitors to enjoy our Creepy Carnival this
weekend. Everyone loves a spooky Halloween and there will be plenty of
opportunity for fun, fancy dress and seeing the park’s incredible
animals,” said Chris White, Events Manager, of the park, at Branton,
near Doncaster.
YWP’s Creepy Carnival will run for three days over Halloween, from
October 27th to 29th, and is suitable for children of all ages.
Visitors will experience a chilling but family friendly collection of
ghoulish entertainment and enjoy an unrivaled opportunity to come almost
face to face with some of the world’s most beautiful and endangered
animals.
Chris added: “We will have coconut shy, hoopla stalls and over 40
performers for this weekend so it will definitely be our biggest
Halloween event so far.”
Children will also have the opportunity to have their face painted,
learn clown skills and enjoy free craft workshops.
A variety of live shows will be held including the fun, family
panto-style show ‘Jojo and the Book of Life’, and ‘The Creepiest
Carnival’ where visitors can watch an array of carnival characters who
will tell their stories with music, dance and pyrotechnics in an
unforgettable show.
YWP, one of the fastest growing wildlife attractions in the UK, offers
families an entertaining, fun filled and educational day out.
The park, which opened in 2009, allows visitors to get up close to some
of the world’s most endangered and beautiful animals, including Amur
Leopards and Tigers, African lions, and the country’s only Polar Bears,
in a breath-taking walkthrough adventure.
