Spooky Sheffield events for Halloween

Spooky season is upon us once again and there's lots going on in Sheffield and as the lead up to Halloween also coincides with the October Half Term school holidays, there's lots happening for families and kids to get stuck into.

We've collated the best of Halloween events for families below, but if you want something a little more chilling (i.e. not a family affair) then we've also got some extra scary options further down below for older audiences too. 

Out of this World 2024

Celebrating its tenth year, Out of this World is a FREE family event celebrating all things otherworldly!

Taking place across Sheffield City Centre, the event is for anyone who enjoys sci-fi, comic books, gaming, magic, illusion, Halloween and all things spooky.

Every year, it attracts thousands of adults and children (many in costume), who come to see and enjoy this weird, wonderful and wacky event.
