Halloween for children from 3 to 6 years old
They are still very young to celebrate Halloween! Often coached by big brothers and sisters, they also want to participate in the party. We have selected activities adapted to toddlers and that address the theme of Halloween without scaring them!
Halloween for 7-12 year olds
“Des bonbons ou un sort !” A la nuit tombée, les enfants adorent faire du porte à porte chez les voisins ou les commerçants du quartier, déguisées en espérant avoir des bonbons ! Dans la journée, de nombreuses animations pour Halloween, souvent payantes, sont proposées aux enfants : ateliers, croisières Halloween, Escape Games…
Halloween Thrills for Teens
Teenagers are looking for outings to do independently, with friends at Halloween time. Such as immersive games, evenings where they can dress up or thrilling activities (Accrocamp organizes Halloween parties in the various tree climbing courses around Paris).
Celebrate Halloween at an amusement park
Amusement parks compete with each other in imagination at Halloween time with breathtaking decorations, animations to scare the little ones and to make teenagers shiver.

Pumpkin and squash workshops for Halloween
Children love it! These workshops are aimed at children from about 5 years old. They take place in picking farms or educational farms around Paris. Children can then go and see the farm animals. The price of the workshop is quite affordable.
Halloween Shows
Many small shows are offered every year, during the All Saints’ Day holidays. They talk about witches, spiders, monsters or candy.

What to do during the All Saints’ Day holidays in Paris?
Frequently Asked Questions
This is the question that drives all households as soon as autumn arrives! For a magical party, the Jardin d’Acclimatation is one of our great favorites: it is transformed every year with grandiose decorations and mischievous shows for the little ones. Parisian museums, such as the Grévin Museum, also offer nocturnal events full of mystery and humor.
For a country Halloween, we advise you to go with your family to the gathering farms of Île-de-France (such as Viltain or Gally). Your little explorers will be able to choose their pumpkin directly in the fields before learning how to carve it under large friendly tents. It’s the ideal autumn activity!
It all depends on the age of your adventurers! For the little ones, Disneyland Paris remains an absolute fairy tale with its villainous accomplices and colorful parades. For your teenagers in search of thrills and shared laughter, the “Fear on the Park” event at Parc Astérix is a must. For a tender in-between, the dreadful Mer de Sable is a pure wonder.
To preserve the serenity of our 3- to 6-year-olds, opt for nice morning or early afternoon outings, when the light is soft. For older children (7-12 years old), the late afternoon (around 5-6 p.m.), by the light of the lanterns, offers that delicious little thrill so much sought after before returning home for dinner!
Our teenagers love to scare themselves… as long as they laugh a lot! Offer them a complicit experience: an immersive escape game in the dark, a Murder Party at the Palace of Versailles, or a historical and nocturnal treasure hunt in the mysterious alleys of the Latin Quarter. It’s perfect for disconnecting from screens!
We couldn’t find a free event in Paris for Halloween. On the other hand, you can create your small event as a family, by accompanying your children in disguise to go door to door to get candy.
Yes, almost all of them celebrate Halloween during the All Saints’ Day holidays and more particularly on October 31st. For example, the Asterix park and its “Fear over the park” or the “Disney Halloween Festival” at Disney Adventure World.
