Promotions Coordinator from Devonport Peninsula Trust

Our Bayswater Halloween Trail is happening this Friday, 26 October between 5pm-7pm at the Bayswater Park! Entry is FREE and all is welcome.

We have a fun new trail questionnaire and games and activities like 'Giant Jenga', 'Connect 4' and 'Twister', plus unusual bikes to try out and children can have a go trying out Devonport Volunteer Fire Brigade's fire hoses as well.

Far Far Away is bringing us another 'Creepy Zone', and the creepy hut will also be on the trail, plus the roving zombie film crew and the usual other tricks and treats.

So mount your bike, put on your ghost shoes and explore our green route!
Register between 5:00pm-6:00pm at Bayswater Park by the playground – to avoid the queues, bring along your already completed registration form.
*Please note, we are not collecting the registration forms in advance but to give you a speedier registration experience, we encourage you to pre-fill the forms and bring them with you on the day.
