In a rare opportunity to come within the Garden gates after hours, join a select few to explore what goes bump in the night behind the garden walls.
Get into the spirit (pun intended) of Friday the 13th for a spooky journey along shadowy tree-lined paths and buildings holding the memories of people long since passed. Start your night with an other-worldly cocktail at the Palm House.
Tiptoe through eerie passageways as bats flit above your head and night-creatures stare from the treetops on this unforgettable tour of this ‘ghostly garden’. Hear tales you’ve never heard before trying unbelievably delicious cocktails. Our Archie Rose expert will walk you through how to make two delicious spooky cocktails that will be sure to impress this Halloween. We figure we don’t need to walk you through how to drink them.
