This year’s fun theme: The Adventures of Percy Jackson!
Three nights of trick-or-treating and family fun at Fairytale Town’s annual Safe & Super Halloween!
Fairytale Town will be transformed into Rick Riordan’s mythological world of Percy Jackson and the Olympians for three nights of family fun on October 24, 25 and 26 from 5 to 9 pm.
Young heroes can venture through the transformed park as they make their quest to Mount Olympus and the infamous Olympian Zeus. Visit Polyphemus’ lair, the replica Parthenon, the Oracle of Delphi and Medusa’s garden, just remember not to look her directly in the eyes! Keep an eye out for plenty of mythological characters and creatures along the way.
Seventeen candy stations will be scattered throughout the park for trick-or-treaters to visit. The evening also features hands-on activities and a costume parade at 8:30pm.
Puppet Art Theater Company will perform Frankenswine, a zany, Halloween-themed puppet show, each night at 6, 7 & 8 PM in the Children’s Theater. Puppet show tickets are an additional $1 for members and $2 for nonmembers. Check out our Pinterest board for costume inspiration.
This year marks the 28th anniversary of Fairytale Town’s Safe and Super Halloween, which provides children and families a safe place to trick or treat, have quality family time, and enjoy a great evening of Halloween-themed, family-friendly fun.
We always have a ton of fun at Fairytale Town’s Halloween celebrations! My kids are Percy Jackson fans and have been anxiously awaiting this year’s event! Hope to see you there, too!

My love for exploring and creating experiences with my three kids led to the founding of SacramentoSidetracks.com in 2009. I realized that Sacramento has so much to offer and I was excited to share my findings with other parents. Besides simply having fun, these are the other positive side effects of taking my kids on outings that I’ve discovered: we have quality time together away from the distractions at home, we cultivate our curiosity, learn new things, conversations are triggered by what we see and do, we connect and bond as a family, and we create new memories. Ready to get sidetracked, too? Let me be your guide!
