What's On, Bristol at Home, Family
Hallo-Wheelie Bin Season
Published on
When: 30 September 2026 – 1 November 2026
Where: Wake The Tiger, Bristol
Wake The Tiger gets a Halloween makeover as strange 'Binshees' take over the immersive Dream Factory, with new installations, surreal worlds and plenty of spooky-but-silly surprises for all ages.
Bristol's UK-record-breaking Amazement Park swaps its usual mushroom-strewn strangeness for a seasonal twist this autumn, as the Dream Factory becomes home to a fresh cast of 'Binshees' – mischievous, wheelie-bin-dwelling spirits haunting the venue's labyrinthine corridors.
What to expect
True to form, Wake The Tiger doesn't do linear tours: visitors wander self-guided through more than 40 interactive spaces, discovering new Halloween-themed installations woven into the existing Meridia storyline. Expect surreal set dressing, playful jump-scares that are more silly than scary, and photo-worthy corners at every turn.
Good to know
The event runs across the park's usual opening hours and is designed to be enjoyed by all ages, from toddlers on the Tiger Tot Pass to teens and adults after something a little stranger than the average Halloween trail. Tickets are best booked in advance online, particularly for weekends and half term.
