Celebrate Halloween at Aim High

Aim High Park is making its debut in hosting Halloween entertainment with a weekend full of family-friendly fun with a DJ party and two-day Haunted Playground.

“This is our first time celebrating Halloween at Aim High, so we are super excited about it,” said Cecy Romero, Park Manager at Aim High Park.

Starting next Friday, the Park will transform into a dance floor like never seen before for the Freaky Friday – Halloween DJ Teen Party with DJ D-Nyce. It’s an all-inclusive, dress-up event, which will take place from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. on October 26.

“We have been gathering information from our customers, and some mentioned they would like to have more events for teenagers, where they can hang out in a safe environment. And, that’s how we came up with the all-inclusive event,” Romero shared on the upcoming DJ party.

The party will include a haunted playground with scary VR games, a dance party in the trampoline room and all-you-can-eat pizza and drinks in the concession area. Tickets are on sale for $50 per person.

Three prizes will be handed out to the best-dressed guests. (Guests must wear a costume to enter.) There are no age restrictions, but this event is recommended for ages 12 and up.

Check out our Facebook contest for a chance to WIN two free tickets to Freaky Friday and one of two Haunted Playground Family Packages!

*We have packages available for both dates on October 27 and October 28. Packages include one ticket for each member of the contests’ family.*

The Haunted Playground takes place on Saturday, October 27 and Sunday, October 28 from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. This event is for all ages and is $15 per person for each one-hour session.

Each room at Aim High Park will be set-up with different levels of fear factor:

• The Trampoline Area will be the spookiest with glow-in-the-dark props and skeleton decorations.
• The Toddler Time Area will remain well-lit with baby-friendly Halloween décor.
• The Playground Area with the big slides will have dimmed lighting and a graveyard theme.

“We are going to decorate our big, trampoline playground with all kinds of scary and creepy stuff, but we are also going to have a not-so-scary playground where little ones can have fun without being scared,” said Romero.
