Northfields Allotments Halloween Trail
Grab your wellies and prepare those costumes, because Northfields Allotments Halloween Trail is back! Join us on Saturday 31st October 2.30pm - 7.30pm and experience the spooky trail through London’s oldest allotments.
This year will be the 9th in our series of delighting the public with our ghostly garden displays at our horrifying horticultural home. Due to overwhelming demand, this year will once again be a ticket only event.
For the comfort of our visitors and volunteers, we’ll be limiting numbers. To do this we’ll issue timed tickets, which will be sold online for a nominal £2.00 (which includes a small booking fee). Visitors under the age of three will go free.
All visitors are invited to buy timed tickets in advance, spreading out visitors across the afternoon. Tickets will not be sold at the event.
If you have any questions, please first refer to our FAQs page
The Halloween trail will pass the witches’ grotto, scarecrows, the old graveyard, the ghosted sheds, ethereal spirits, the little greenhouse of horrors and many other spooky decorations. As darkness falls, the path through the site will be lit up by the magical lights as features come to life in a different manner.
Among other ghoulish treats, there will be a creepy cake stand with tea and coffee, as well as a blood-curdling BBQ and Bar, serving our famous mulled wine!
We’d love to see all of you in your Halloween costumes too!
Dogs are welcome on a lead, but werewolves are asked not to howl in case it disturbs the neighbours.
If you plan to come after 5pm, please bring a torch as some areas of the site will be dark. Last entry at the gate will be 6.30pm
We do have a buggy park, but visitors are strongly advised to leave buggies at home as paths are more suited to wheelbarrows.
We look forward to welcoming you to our allotments!
All tickets are strictly non-refundable unless the event is cancelled.
PS- Feel free to share this event far and wide!
PLEASE NOTE: The entrance to the 2026 Trail will start at Mattock Lane rather than the middle gates on Northfield Avenue or Occupation Road - this will help manage the queuing system. If arriving from Northfields, please enter the Radbourne Walk (passage along the west-side of the allotment) via Occupation Road. This is to manage the safety of the queue so it is not along the main road.
