Newquay Zombie Crawl 2026

#CANCELLED# Newquay Zombie Crawl 2026

The Crawl itself has been cancelled but some outside events have found venues inside, and all the existing inside events are going ahead.

Saturday, October 24: Free indoor workshops
A whole host of free workshops and activities are still planned across Newquay on Zombie Crawl weekend. The programme is family-friendly and designed to give children and adults plenty to enjoy, even though the outdoor parade cannot go ahead.

• Face painting
• Pumpkin carving
• Banner making
• Storytelling
• Wound-making and spooky make-up activities

These activities form part of the wider programme taking place across the town. Activities will be held indoors where arrangements have been confirmed. Families should check the official website for the latest details on locations, timings and any activity-specific arrangements.

Indoor performances across Newquay
Outdoor performances are also being moved indoors where possible, with the following arrangements planned:

• 2pm – Titan the Robot at Newquay Cinema, with a half-hour performance.
• 12pm – Newquay Samba Band and 4Motion Dance group at Whiskers Gover Lane
• 12pm- Bounce Dance Academy and Cornwall Theatre Group at the Unity Bar Gover Lane

• Businesses across Newquay will be hosting children’s discos, parties and other Halloween activities in the afternoon. Salt Sheds on Beach Road will be hosting a free children’s silent disco, while the Griffin will also be offering a free kids’ disco.

Organisers of the Zombie Crawl said the forecast means they cannot guarantee the safe delivery of the outdoor parade. They added that the decision has been made following careful consideration, with the safety of residents, visitors, performers, participants and event staff being their priority.

However, it said the free, family-friendly workshops, indoor performances and Halloween activities on Saturday will still be going ahead.

The house remembers: A Halloween experience at Trerice

For one night only, Trerice awakens with memories from centuries past. As darkness falls, step into the house as the line between past and present begins to fade.

Sat 31 Oct 2026 at 18:00 to 18:30 

For centuries, Trerice has stood watch over countless lives, celebrations, secrets and sorrows.

The walls have listened. The rooms have witnessed. The house has remembered.

This Halloween, as darkness falls and the veil between past and present begins to thin, forgotten memories stir once more within the manor. Shadows move where none should be. Familiar faces from centuries gone by appear in unexpected places. Whispers echo through the rooms. As you wander through the house, you may encounter echoes of those who once lived, worked and walked these floorboards. Some memories are welcoming. Others should perhaps have remained forgotten.

Will you uncover the stories hidden within the walls?

Or will the house remember you, too?

Join us this Halloween for an atmospheric evening of mystery, history and haunting encounters at Trerice.

'The House Remembers' is an atmospheric Halloween experience designed primarily for teenagers and adults. The evening includes low lighting, eerie encounters and occasional jump scares within the historic house. Children aged 11 and over are welcome when accompanied by an adult, but younger visitors may find some elements frightening.

Please book a 30 minute arrival time slot and arrive at Visitor Reception within this time.
