Children in Halloween costumes can avail of free entry to Dublin Zoo over the October bank holiday weekend, with a paying adult.

Dublin Zoo is celebrating Halloween weekend with a "spooktacular schedule" of family fun activities, including themed magic shows, "creepy crafts and ghoulish games, a special Spooky Trail, and much more".

There will be a special offer for little ones in fancy dress, with free entry to Dublin Zoo for each child dressed in costume per full-paying adult from Saturday, October 28th to Monday, October 30th. Visitors can avail of this offer both online and at the gate.

This Halloween, visitors are invited to witness Halloween-themed magic shows, meet spooky characters and get their faces painted to match their Halloween costumes.

There will also be special keeper talks taking place to offer insights into the many fascinating animals at Dublin Zoo, with the addition of two new talks especially for Halloween at the nocturnal aye-aye and the wolf habitats.
