Back for 2018: Happy Hauntings!

Kennywood’s Happy Hauntings is a kid-friendly Halloween event on Saturdays and Sundays throughout the month of October. Taking place from noon - 4:00 p.m., Kennywood is transformed into a Halloween spook-tacular festival where pumpkins replace flowers and cornstalks sprout up throughout the park. Young riders can enjoy Kiddieland and favorites such as the Merry-Go-Round, Auto Race and Jack Rabbit. Plus hay rides, trick-or-treat trails, and more! This event is geared for children under 10. Children may dress in costumes – some costumes may not be permitted on select rides for safety reasons. For more info, Click Here.
