distinctly different ways to experience the park this fall
VAUGHAN, ON (Aug. 18, 2026) – Fall is taking over Canada’s Wonderland. As summer winds down, the
park transforms for a season of food, festivities, family-friendly Halloween fun and after-dark scares,
with Oktoberfest, Tricks & Treats and Halloween Haunt bringing three distinctly different experiences to
the park this fall.
Whether guests are raising a stein to Oktoberfest, trick-or-treating with the PEANUTS gang or facing
their fears at Halloween Haunt, there’s something for everyone as the season changes at Canada’s
Wonderland.
Oktoberfest: Prost to Fall!
The fall festivities begin with Oktoberfest, returning weekends Sept. 11-13 and 18-20 with the sights,
sounds and flavours of Germany. Guests can enjoy German favourites including bratwurst, schnitzel and
warm pretzels, paired with an extensive selection of craft beers and seasonal dishes.
The celebration comes alive with lively polka music, live bands, street performers and festive
entertainment, while most of the park’s most popular rides remain open for guests looking to add some
thrills to their celebration.
Tricks & Treats: All the Family Fun, No Fear
Starting Sept. 26, families can celebrate Halloween during Tricks & Treats, the new name for Canada’s
Wonderland’s popular family-friendly Halloween event formerly known as Camp Spooky.
Taking place during the day on select dates through Nov. 1, Tricks & Treats is all about Halloween fun
without the fright. Kids can dress up in their Halloween best, meet friendly characters, enjoy trick-ortreating
and take part in a variety of spooky-but-silly entertainment and activities.
Highlights include Monster Bash, where classic movie monsters compete to become the Ultimate
Halloween Monster, the PEANUTS Costume Party, and a Trick or Treating Adventure.
Families can also explore a friendlier side of some of Canada’s Wonderland’s spooky environments,
including Spirit Manor, where brighter lights, a lighter soundtrack and friendly ghosts replace the scares.
Guests can also see the Pumpkin Patches, enjoy the musical stylings of the Spectral Sisters, meet magical
characters in Wicked Hollow and explore the family-friendly Corn Maze.
Halloween Haunt: All You Fear, Is Here
When the sun goes down, the monsters come to play.
Halloween Haunt returns select nights Sept. 25 through Nov. 1, transforming Canada’s Wonderland into
a scream park filled with haunted mazes, sinister scare zones, hundreds of monsters, live entertainment
and thrilling night rides.
Guests can brave six haunted mazes*, including Cornstalkers, Dark Ride, Demons of the Deep, Spirit
Manor, The Crypt and The Ruins, each immersing guests in a different nightmare. Seven scare zones
throughout the park add another layer of terror, with monsters and eerie environments waiting around
every corner.
Returning as a featured experience is The Conjuring: Beyond Fear, an immersive terror experience that
puts guests in the role of paranormal investigators. Guests must confront malevolent entities from New
Line Cinema’s The Conjuring Universe, including the infamous Annabelle, while attempting to lock away
cursed artifacts before sinister forces consume the living realm. A separate purchase is required for this
experience, which is recommended for guests aged 13 and up.
Haunt also features live entertainment including Inferno, a fiery performance featuring daring stunts
and contortions; Head Bangers, an electrifying LED drumming experience; and live bands and
performers throughout the event.
*Access with the purchase of a Haunted Attraction Pass.
Canada’s Wonderland Is Hiring Its Monsters
Every scream at Halloween Haunt starts with the people behind the makeup.
Canada’s Wonderland is currently hiring for Halloween Haunt actors who will transform into the
monsters, characters and creatures that bring the park’s haunted mazes and scare zones to life.
Those selected for the roles will become part of the team responsible for bringing Canada’s
Wonderland’s haunted mazes and scare zones to life, helping create the characters and creatures that
make Halloween Haunt one of the park’s most immersive experiences.
