Tivoli Gardens in Copenhagen has unveiled its Halloween event for 2026, with experiences including more than 20,000 pumpkins, two haunted houses, and a new Michelin-starred dining experience.

Halloween at Tivoli Gardens runs from 2 October to 1 November, providing an immersive setting filled with hay bales, autumn flowers and foliage, themed market stalls, and thousands of glowing pumpkins.


Starting with the haunted houses, the award-winning Villa Vendetta is returning to the theme park, with guests braving 492 feet of dark corridors and 12 creepy rooms.

The second house is located beneath the park's historic Rutschebanen wooden roller coaster, where sinister figures lurk in the shadows.

Also part of Tivoli's Halloween experience is the 19th Danish Giant Pumpkin Championship, which are later transformed into monsters, fantasy figures and enormous jack-o'-lanterns.

Finally, The Pagoda at Tivoli, a historic pavilion that operates as a unique dining venue hosting rotating residencies from Michelin-starred chefs, will be taken over by Belgium's Zilte from 2 October through 1 November.

Zilte, a three-Michelin-star restaurant located in Antwerp, is considered one of Europe's most distinctive fine dining destinations.

Tivoli's first Halloween season opened in 2006, running for just 10 days and attracting 250,000 guests. Today, the park's Halloween event attracts around half a million visitors.

Last month, Tivoli opened its new Hikari area, inspired by a colourful Japanese streetscape.

The new zone offers atmospheric lighting, landscaped gardens, unique architecture, street food concepts, Japanese art, and immersive design elements.

The Hikari project represents the largest themed development in Tivoli Gardens' nearly 200-year history.
