Halloween Family Party
Get ready for a frightfully fun evening as Glasgow Science Centre transforms into Scotland’s spookiest hotspot for the return of our legendary indoor Family Halloween Party!
On Friday 24 October 2025, from 6–9pm, families are invited to don their most creative costumes and explore three floors packed with interactive exhibits, eerie experiments, and spine-tingling surprises. Whether you're a mini monster or a grown-up goblin, there’ll be plenty of tricks, treats, and hands-on fun to keep everyone entertained.
🎃 Haunting Highlights include:
Monster Science in our Science Show Theatre (all ages)
Mission to Titan in the Planetarium (recommended ages 8+)
Broom Blast in The Horrible Hive (Floor 1)
Cress Monsters in The Dreadful Design Studio (Floor 2)
Zombie Apocalypse at the Chain Reaction Exhibit (Floor 2)

Tickets are priced at just £13 per skull!
N.B. If you are attending with someone who requires an essential carer, you don't need to book a ticket for the carer, but you must bring proof of carer status to be permitted free entry on the night. Please be ready to present this at the Ticket Desk on arrival.
