Councillor Max Holloway, Executive Member, Leisure and Community said:
There’s so much fun to be had during the October half term week that Welwyn Hatfield children will be spoilt for choice! It really is going to be fright-fully difficult to decide what to book first, but make sure you do, before you drop into the town centre events! I personally can’t wait to find out what fang-tastic facts await us on the Spooktacular Trivia Trail – see you there!
