Mines Museum Spooktacular

Description

The Mines Museum Spooktacular is a family-friendly, Halloween-themed indoor/outdoor, onsite event hosting a variety of community partners, like the Buffalo Bill Museum and the Golden History Museum. and offering a wide range of activities for trick-or-treaters and their families, including appearances by Mr. Bones, Blaster the Burro, Mad Science and Miss Colorado. Each trick-or-treater receives a complimentary trick-or-treat bag and visits the activity stations to fill their bags with complimentary goodies. The Spooktacular is a Teal Pumpkin event ensuring that all goodies handed out are non-food items that are safe for the many children with allergies. In 2024, we welcomed over 1,300 guests in three hours (an exponential growth from the flagship event that attracted 600 guests in 2019)! The museum is committed to maintaining free admission to the Spooktacular event in an effort to be accessible to people of all socioeconomic backgrounds. Over forty-five volunteers contributed countless hours last year to make the Spooktacular a success.
