Ghosts, Pirates, and Witches take over Liverpool ONE for Spooktacular Halloween Party

Ghosts, pirates, witches – and everything in between – took over Liverpool ONE this weekend as part of a spooktacular Halloween party.

The Halloween Party at Liverpool ONE, which took place on today (Sunday 27 October) from 11am until 5pm, offered a full day of family-friendly thrills and entertainment, from spooky characters and performances to the hugely popular children’s Halloween competition.

The annual children’s fancy dress competition took place on South John Street with the winner receiving £200 to spend at Liverpool ONE brands plus tickets to Comic Con Liverpool. 

As part of the packed line-up, the much-loved local drumming group Katumba brought a Halloween twist to their performance, taking to the streets to get everyone in the spooky ‘spirit’. 

This year, the group also hosted brand new special workshops for visitors to learn their moves and even join in during a performance.

Zombie dancers from MD Productions ran dance masterclasses with party-goers, before entertaining everyone throughout the day with hauntingly good performances, and there were plenty of selfie opportunities throughout the day as characters took to the streets to delight and entertain families!

The frightful fun was presented on the stage by The Guide Liverpool, featuring Jay Hynd and Gemma Cutting, as well as Jack Hellier and Rachael Rhodes.

Donna Howitt, Place Strategy Director at Liverpool ONE, said:

“This year’s Halloween Party has been another great success, packed full of fun and frights for all the family!

“It is always such a joy to see the creativity and enthusiasm our visitors bring to the costume competition, as well as this year’s dance masterclasses and drumming workshops.

“Thank you to everyone who made this year’s event as spooktacular as ever!”
