Following the great success of its Summer Social event, Trafford Centre converted this vast outdoor space to SPOOKFEST, a spectacular Halloween event carefully designed to appeal to all, earlier last month.

The huge outdoor space was made over for the spooky season to feature a haunted hay bale maze, escape room, Halloween themed funfair rides and a Halloween Spooktacular big top show. The event also included an eclectic mix of independent food and drink brands to complement the centre’s indoor offering.

The SPOOKFEST event even extended its reach into the centre with activities taking place across the mall, including spine-chilling show dances, creepy cocktails and the footfall driving Trafford Centre Trick or Treat Trail, directly involving the retailers with more than 35 signing up to take part.

Zoe Inman, Centre Director, said: “…Events have historically been an important part of what the centre has to offer and we are thrilled to see this back on track for visitors to experience alongside our existing retail and F&B brands. SPOOKFEST really is bringing something fresh and exciting for everyone to enjoy.”
