    A wizardly adventure at Tatton Park’s awaits!

    Tatton Park, Knutsford, Cheshire, WA16 6SG

    Family fun and magical adventure will be casting a spell over the spookiest corner of Tatton Park this Halloween as interactive performance group ‘Rusticus’ present a unique,  all-new experience in the atmospheric grounds of Tatton’s  medieval Old Hall.

    The ‘Great Wizards Gathering’ follows Arch-wizard Fumblefoot on his mission to fight off the dragons that are trying to destroy this medieval village. Willing apprentices and their grown-ups are needed to help ward off the fearsome beasts!

    This fun, two-hour family-friendly adventure takes place in the oldest part of the Tatton estate, close to a disappeared medieval village, whose humps and hollows show where houses once stood.

    During your quest, follow Wizard Fumblefoot and his spooky friends to discover the history and folklore of the buildings and grounds.  Professor Sidebottom will teach all apprentices wicked wizardry skills such as wand-making, spell-casting and broomstick flying whilst Dr Cabbageleaf will take a Potions class on dragon bogey and frozen fire making to help defeat the mighty creatures!

    Do you dare to join them? 

    There are 4 gatherings each day from Saturday 26 to Thursday 31 October, and tickets cost £10 per person. Pre-book your tickets online and receive FREE car entry (which is usually £7).

    Limited Tickets for magical beings only available from the Tatton Park website at www.tattonpark.org.uk/halloween
