GHOSTS and ghouls will mingle with monsters and zombies at the Killarney Outlet Centre Halloween fancy dress parade this Sunday, October 30. The fun commences at 2pm and continues until 6pm with spooky swarms converging on the Outlet Centre.

Take it from us, it’s always a spook-tactic event, with covetable prizes and free fun activities for whole family.

The lucky winners of the fancy dress parade will receive a Roller RX Scooter for the best-dressed boy and a Speed Scooter for the best-dressed girl, both sponsored by O’Connor’s World of Wonder. The best-dressed family in association with Select Hotels will win a fabulous family break in Kenmare Bay Hotel B&B and one dinner for two adults and two children sponsored by Select Hotels and Kenmare Bay Hotel. The best-dressed adult will collect a family pass for Killarney Ghost Tours. All entrants are asked to donate €1 in support of Killarney Rotary Club’s campaign to End Polio Now.

Killarney Outlet Centre manager Paul Sherry said: “Every child will be given a goodie bag, kindly sponsored by Killarney Advertiser and there’s even a treat in store for parents, as everyone who comes along to the party will receive a voucher from Select Hotels of Ireland offering a free second night’s stay when you book one night away at any Select Hotel nationwide.”

The event will feature bouncy castles with A Time to Party, free Halloween face painting to put the finishing touch to your outfit and the chance to get creative at the free Halloween recycled arts and crafts workshops.

There will be free children’s entertainment with spooky storytelling sessions and Punch and Judy puppet shows in the yurt from 2pm to 4 pm. Killarney Candle Makers and Clay Fun will also be on hand to help you create a personalised candle or clay design – a small materials charge applies.
Ireland’s premier Outlet Centre hosts a bespoke arts, crafts and food fair on the ground floor on Saturday, October 29 and Sunday, October 30.
