Get ready for a frightfully fun time as Witchy Wednesday returns to Congleton Town Hall on Wednesday 29 October 2025. This much-loved event offers children a packed programme of activities including pumpkin carving, creepy crafts, face painting, scary cake decorating, and a fancy-dress competition.
Tickets cost just £2 per child and are available from Congleton Information Centre or online via TicketSource: Congleton Town Council event tickets from TicketSource. Sessions run at 11am, 12.30pm, and 2pm. Adults do not need tickets, but children must be accompanied by a responsible adult. Families are asked to book only one session per child and to cancel if they can no longer attend, so others don’t miss out.
Witchy Wednesday forms part of the town’s Haunted Halloween Half-Term celebrations, which also include the free Halloween Trail running from 25 October to 1 November across the town centre. Trail leaflets can be collected from the Information Centre or downloaded at home: Haunted Halloween Half-Term – Congleton Town Council
Rachel McCarthy, Congleton Town Centre and Events Officer, said: “Halloween in Congleton is always a fantastic community celebration, and this year is set to be even bigger and better. The Halloween Trail is a wonderful way to explore our town centre and support local businesses, while Witchy Wednesday promises fun, creativity, and spooky surprises for families. We can’t wait to welcome everyone into the town for some half-term magic.”
