Chair of the Council, Councilor Eugene McConnell is looking forward to the return of the popular Halloween events this year.

Halloween has always been a highly-celebrated and anticipated time of the year in Mid Ulster with activities and firework displays taking place right across the district. And this year is no different. These popular events are a wonderful opportunity for families, friends, and neighbours to come together, celebrate safely, and enjoy the spirit of the season. From spooky arts and crafts, to scary amusements and of course our spooktacular fireworks displays, there’s something for everyone. I encourage all residents to take part, have fun, and make lasting memories in the heart of our vibrant community. Let’s make this Halloween one to remember!

All events are free, and no booking is necessary.
