Tulleys Shocktober Fest 2026: Gatwick's Scariest Neighbour (3 October – 1 November)
Quick answer: Tulleys Shocktober Fest — Europe's largest scream park — runs 3 October to 1 November 2026 at Tulleys Farm, Turners Hill, West Sussex. It sits barely 15 minutes from Gatwick Airport, making it one of the easiest big-ticket attractions in the country to reach from a flight — and a brilliant first-night plan for autumn visitors.
When and where
Haunted attractions, live scare actors, rides and street entertainment take over Tulleys Farm every October. Evening sessions sell out on peak nights around Halloween, so plan travel in advance.
Getting there
- Gatwick (LGW) — around 15 minutes by road. Land, drop bags, get scared.
- Heathrow (LHR) — roughly 1 hour via the M25/M23.
- Central London — about 1 hour 15 minutes; a fixed-price MPV split between friends is the comfortable way down.
Fright-night travel tips
- Events finish late — rural Sussex has little late-night public transport, and on-demand apps surge on peak nights. A pre-booked return with an agreed pickup point wins.
- Staying near Gatwick before an early flight? Shocktober Fest is the classic evening-before plan — we'll run you park → hotel → terminal on fixed prices.
- Groups of 5–8: one MPV beats three cabs — and nobody waits alone in a dark car park.
