There are plenty of exciting Halloween events happening around San Francisco, and the California Academy of Sciences is joining in on the fun. The science museum is known for its many educational exhibitions, along with an aquarium, rainforest, and planetarium that regularly draw tourists and locals alike. This October, the museum will host a family-friendly Halloween event with candy, dancing, and more.
SuperNatural Halloween at the California Academy of Sciences
On Saturday, October 24, the California Academy of Sciences is hosting a festive Halloween party for families. The event, named SuperNatural, will run from 6:30 to 9 pm and feature plenty of festive, family-friendly activities throughout the science museum.
The Halloween party will feature multiple fun activations throughout the museum. The Steinhart Aquarium will host a silent disco, while kids can grab candy and sweet treats from festive trick-or-treat stations throughout the museum. Families can also expect a Halloween ride, animal demonstrations, and even “mad scientists.”Other fun activities include face painting and photo booths, plus a teen lounge for families with older children.
General admission tickets are $45 for kids and $60, but you can also choose from early admission or VIP tickets that offer complimentary food and drinks with access to an exclusive garden.
The event is intended only for families, but if you’re looking for an adult alternative, the museum will host a Halloween NightLife event on Thursday, October 29, with drinks, performances, and more for adults. You can learn more and book tickets on the California Academy of Sciences website.
