Scarefest Takeover: Humberside Scouts at Alton Towers

Big Rides. Late Nights. Proper Scarefest.

We’re heading to Alton Towers for Scarefest — and this one’s aimed at Scouts, Explorers and Network. Leaders, you’re coming too.

As the park transforms for its Halloween season, expect longer ride times, live scare mazes, themed zones and that unique after-dark atmosphere. It’s the same world-class theme park, just louder, darker and a little more intense.

If you’re up for it, this is your kind of trip.

What to Expect

Scarefest brings together thrill rides and seasonal experiences, including:

– Access to Alton Towers’ headline rollercoasters
– Extended evening ride times in the dark
– Themed scare attractions and live entertainment
– Time to explore the park in groups
– A full day out with friends from across the County

Young people will attend in organised groups with clear supervision arrangements and agreed meeting points throughout the day.

Who It’s For

This trip is open to:

– Scouts
– Explorer Scouts
– Scout Network
– Leaders who fancy proving they’re still brave enough

It’s a chance to enjoy something different together — outside the usual meeting night and out in the wider world.
