The Wild Hunt Lantern Workshop

Join us for a spooktastic Halloween parade inspired by the legendary Wild Hunt!

Immerse yourself in the Halloween spirit by creating your very own scary lantern to carry during the parade. Join the other beasts, ghouls, and goblins as we bring the Wild Hunt to life in the heart of Coventry. Our weekly crafting sessions are the perfect opportunity to design your unique lantern. These activities can be tricky for little hands, so a parent or guardian is required, making it a fantastic team activity for families and friends.

As Halloween night approaches, we’ll gather at the historic St Mary’s Guildhall. From there, we’ll embark on a thrilling parade through Coventry town center, showcasing our eerie creations and spreading spooky cheer. The parade will wind its way through the streets, culminating back at St Mary’s Guildhall.

To cap off the evening, enjoy a short, spine-chilling shadow show that promises to delight and frighten in equal measure. This event is perfect for those who love Halloween and want to experience the magic of the season in a unique and creative way.

Don’t miss out on the fun and fright – come and be part of our Wild Hunt Halloween Parade!
