Worcester and Worcestershire events guide for Halloween and Bonfire Night

Summarised from 2 outlets · 4 reports · Updated 31 Oct, 06:22 · Archive

Worcester and surrounding areas offer Halloween attractions and Bonfire Night fireworks displays across late October and November.

Worcester is hosting several Halloween attractions this weekend. The Commandery, a historic building in the city centre, offers paranormal investigation experiences on Saturday 31 October at 8pm, combining ghost hunts with local Civil War history. A guided walking tour starting from the Elgar Statue takes visitors through Worcester's streets to explore hauntings, murders and local legends. On Sunday 1 November, Worcester Woods Country Park runs a foraging session from 10am where participants can learn to identify mushrooms and fungi.

Halloween decorations have become popular across Worcester, with standout displays on Orchid Close in St Peter's and Martindale Close in Warndon. Streets in St John's, Battenhall, Claines and Lower Wick also feature homes decorated with pumpkins, cobwebs and seasonal lighting.

As Bonfire Night approaches, multiple fireworks displays are planned across Worcestershire in November. Sixways returns on Saturday 7 November with a professionally choreographed display, funfair rides, character meet-and-greets and food stalls, with gates opening at 5.30pm and fireworks at 7.30pm. Churchfields Farm in Droitwich Spa offers family-friendly low-noise displays scheduled across the Bonfire Night period, designed to be more accessible for younger children and those sensitive to loud bangs. The Plough and Harrow near Pershore and other venues also host events with bonfires, street food and entertainment.
