What you need to know
- Book the candy trail, since trick-or-treat runs on timed slots and every adult and child needs their own
- Scary parts are optional: the churchyard ghosts open at 5pm and are watched from outside the wall
- Parade finale at 6:45pm, from Sollidenplan through the old town to the Pumpkin Disco for one big dance
About
Skansen's open-air museum on Djurgården turns into a gently spooky park at dusk for Halloween. Kids follow a trick-or-treat trail through the old town quarter, meeting odd characters and collecting candy at seven stations, then dance at the Pumpkin Disco, borrow a flashlight to find lost kittens and hop a broomstick course. It is cozy rather than scary and built for younger kids. The churchyard ghosts suit braver ones.
