Dare to Dine in The Haunted Woods

Discover a ghostly feast of devilish bites, blood-bag cocktails, and eerie entertainment as The Rocks transforms into a supernatural bayou food village this Halloween!

This Halloween season, brace yourself for a spine-tingling, taste-bud-tingling adventure at Ghost Festival! From October 31 to November 3, The Rocks will transform into the haunted heart of New Orleans, inviting you to experience The Haunted Woods – an enchanting bayou food and drink village nestled in the eerie embrace of First Fleet Park.

Picture this: 22 eerily-lit cabins beckon you to explore, surrounded by ghostly sounds and towering props that will send shivers down your spine. Each cabin serves up devilishly delicious bites and wickedly inventive drinks that’ll make your heart race – from spine-chilling sweets to pumpkin-spiced brews and cocktails served in blood bags. The Haunted Woods will whisk you away to the mysterious swamps of Louisiana, where werewolves prowl and vampires lurk, all wrapped in the enchanting charm of New Orleans.

But The Haunted Woods isn’t just a place to satisfy your cravings – it’s an immersive experience that pairs the bold, vibrant flavours of the Big Easy with a festive, spooky twist. Expect creepy culinary creations that ignite your imagination while satisfying your hunger. And fear not, we’ve got four rescue bars on hand to ensure your spirits remain high (pun totally intended!).
