Halloween events in Rotorua
Rotorua does Halloween properly: haunted houses that actually scare you, pumpkin patches worth the drive, and trick-or-treat streets the kids talk about all year. Here's what's on — confirmed dates first, then the annual traditions to watch for.
Confirmed dates
Spooky Maze

All Tickets are Mobile Ticket Only. Mobile Tickets are like Print-at-Home tickets but instead of having to print off the tickets yourself, you can just show the barcode on your mobile phone. It is the easiest way to access tickets to your events.

Good to know
- Haunted houses sell out on the last two weekends — book ahead, don't walk up.
- Pumpkin patches are best on weekday mornings: smaller crowds, better light for photos.
- Bring cash for the farm stands; card readers and corn mazes don't always mix.
- Check age guidance before bringing small kids to a haunt — 'family fright nights' are the gentler pick.
