Fairytale Town Safe & Super Halloween: Magical Mystery Tour
Friday - Sunday, October 23 – 25, 2009 5PM – 9PM
Roll up, roll up for the mystery tour! Journey back in time to the psychedelic sixties for three consecutive nights of family friendly Trick-or-Treating dedicated to the music and memories of those fabulous four Liverpool lads. Visit 17 candy stations scattered along the long and winding road through the park. Check out the Octopus' Garden, take a trip down Penny Lane, cross Abbey Road and stop off at Strawberry Fields before you get back to where you once belonged. Make your own Walrus Puppet and Spin Art, enter a far out costume parade, have your picture taken on stage with Sgt. Pepper and the Yellow Submarine, get a ticket from Lovely Rita the Meter Maid, and experience plenty of surreal surprises for young and old alike as you sing along--all together now--with all the songs you know and love. Puppet Art Theater will also be performing puppet shows in the Children’s Theater. Puppet show tickets are $1 for members and $2 for nonmembers in addition to event admission.
This is a special ticketed event. Presale tickets are $7 for members and $10 for non-members. Day-of the event tickets are $9 for members and $12 for nonmembers. Buy your tickets today!

We always go to Bishop's pumpkin Farm in Wheatland. Our school even does a field trip there. it's safe and clean.
I like that you can bring your own picnic basket and enjoy the day there. the kids have a blast. lots of play areas for all ages. They have a wonderful bakery and use their own grown apples, pumpkins, walnuts etc. serious yum. They even make their own apple cider with a viewing room to watch the process. if you want they have new food area with lots of choices. we went three times last year!

Hi, I don't have an event to post and I'm actually hoping to find one. Are there any vintage type harvest/masquerade/halloween events in the Sacramento area? A family friendly event that's good for creative preteens. Pumpkin patch is kinda young and gory haunted houses too commercial. We always do the fall Ren Faire and also the historical tours at the Cemetary (sadly missed out on this years Lantern Tour). Festivals and ghost hunting maybe? Thanks.

Witchapalooza at Cal Expo
On October 10th and 11th at Cal Expo, LP & M Inc. will be hosting the first ever Witchapalooza in Sacramento, CA. Witchapalooza will be an event like no other in the history of Sacramento and promises to be memorable, fun, and packed with something for everyone. There will be magicians and performers in several key locations throughout the fair. Local Sacramento vendors will be on hand showcasing their products and serves that are related to the fun and mystical.
Witchapalooza will start at 10am and will go into the witching hour each night for this two day event. There will be concerts, exhibitions, costumes, and more. Parking is plentiful and security will be discrete and on hand to ensure the safety of everyone who attends. First aid is provided by Hart Medical Services. Concessions will consist of unique gourmet selections that go beyond traditional fair foods.
In the coming weeks, the website (www.GotWitch.com) will reveal more information on what you can expect from this packed two day experience.
So mark your calendar for the week-end of October 10th and 11th and be ready to be filled with awe and wonder as the date of what promises to be unforgettable draws near.
