Sydney’s spooky season gets a family-sized upgrade. Halloween Family Fest transforms the Entertainment Quarter into a whimsical world of candy trails, creature encounters and inflatable chaos — all designed for little monsters (and their big ones).

The BioHax Take
This isn’t your average Halloween fête with a folding table and face paint. Halloween Family Fest is an immersive, kid-friendly takeover of one of Sydney’s biggest entertainment precincts. Imagine a trick-or-treat trail through a purpose-built Halloween village, a Monsteropolis inflatable playground that eats bouncy castles for breakfast, and a Ghostbusters cinema under the stars. It’s where nostalgia meets novelty, and every corner has a trick (or treat) waiting.
