Autumn Breaks at Paultons Park
Autumn is a brilliant time for an official Paultons Break. The summer rush has eased, the park has a cosy seasonal feel, Halloween brings family-friendly spooky fun, and selected November weekends give families another way to enjoy Paultons Park for great value.
Why autumn is a great time to visit
Halloween Spooktacular
Halloween Spooktacular brings friendly frights and seasonal family fun to Paultons Park from 9 October to 2 November 2026.
Families can expect Peppa Pig World dressed for Halloween, Peppa and George in seasonal costumes, spooky entertainment and Halloween fun across the park. Late-night openings are scheduled on selected October dates, with Peppa Pig World closing at 6pm on those evenings.
The event is designed for families, so it is spooky rather than scary. It is a great way to make an autumn short break feel extra special.
More breathing room for families
Autumn breaks work well for families who want the excitement of Paultons Park without the full summer pace. You can plan favourite rides, character moments, animal areas and food stops with a little more space in the day.
An overnight stay also helps with the rhythm of the trip. Instead of driving home tired after a full park day, you can relax at a nearby family-friendly hotel, wake up to breakfast where applicable and return for more park time if your package includes a FREE 2nd Park Day.
November reduced-rate weekends
From 7 November 2026, Paultons Park is offering November reduced-rate weekends with a selection of rides and attractions open.
These weekends are ideal if your family wants great-value park time after Halloween. Valgard: Realm of the Vikings, Tornado Springs, Peppa Pig World, Wild Lands and a selection of other rides and attractions are listed as part of the November weekend experience.
Some rides close for maintenance during November weekends, so check the latest Paultons Park opening dates and ride availability before travelling.
