Vicar Lane offers shoppers a right howl this Halloween

Visitors to Vicar Lane Shopping Centre should prepare themselves for a right howl this Halloween as the Centre celebrates the spookiest night of the year on Saturday 26th October.

Families are invited to come down and meet Good Witch Gertrude and Bad Witch Brenda at Vicar Lane and take their pick of a great variety of FREE pumpkins from their petrifying pumpkin patch.

Visitors will then have the chance to draw out their creepiest carving design on a template to take away and carve out on their pumpkin at home. The event runs from 11am – 4pm but visitors wishing to take away a FREE pumpkin are encouraged to turn up early to get the pick of the patch! Click here to find out more.

Vicar Lane is also offering customers the chance to celebrate with a special screening of Disney’s COCO at Vicar Lane, in partnership with Bluebird North Events on Saturday 26th October.

Doors open at 1pm for spooky face painting and the film starts at 2pm. Film-goers will find a trick or treat popcorn station, manned by two day of the dead characters in keeping with the theme of the film. They’ll be serving up popcorn and sweets for customers to enjoy throughout the film (subject to availability). Click here to find out more.

Both events take place near CEX.

Shaun Brown, Centre Manager, Vicar Lane said, “Halloween is an increasingly popular annual event across all age groups so we are really excited to be celebrating it with these two fantastic events. We look forward to welcoming families to the Centre in the approach to Halloween to join the celebrations!”
