celebrate the ancient tradition of Samhain or Halloween
with an exhilarating experience suitable for all ages
over two nights on the 29th and 30th October from 5pm -

Donegal County Council
launch the Swan Park Spooktacular Halloween event. |
Inishowen Carnival Group
will be working with a number of Buncrana groups to
present a sculpture and performance trail, featuring
large scale characters, illuminated sculptures and a
host of ghostly performers. The trail will have a
distinctly Celtic flavour and will celebrate Ireland’s
ancient pagan folklore.
From 5pm – 6pm the trail will be open with gentle
background music playing to provide an ideal time for a
younger audience to visit or for people with auditory
sensitivities.
Following this, from 6pm things will begin to get a
little bit spookier with the first of three performances
being repeated at 7pm and 8pm. Performers will include
dancers from Studio 47 and Elite Dance Academy as well
as a Samba Band, Fire and walkabout performers. |
