Free family Halloween fun on the riverside with spooky street entertainment, ghost walks, a trick-or-treat trail, children's games and market stalls.
Halloween on Sadler Gate returns to Sadler Gate on Thursday 29 October, taking over the riverside for another year of family Halloween fun. It's a free event, so you can just turn up with the kids and wander through without worrying about tickets or booking ahead.
The street comes alive with sound and visual effects, and there's plenty to keep you occupied. You'll find spooky street entertainment and ghost walks, a trick-or-treat trail for the little ones to follow, and children's games to play along the way. There are also market stalls set up, so you can browse while the kids are busy with the activities. It's the kind of afternoon where you can just drift from one thing to the next at your own pace.

It runs from 4pm to 8pm, which is a handy window if you want to head down after school or work and stay for a few hours. Since it's free, it's an easy one to drop into for an hour or two, or to settle in for the whole evening. The venue is Sadler Gate, Derby DE1 3NQ, right by the river, so you'll be in the heart of the city for it.
