Halloween at Abu Dhabi in 2026 will be celebrated on 31 October, making Friday 30 October to Sunday 1 November an extensive spooktacular weekend. So far, two big events have been announced: Spooktober at Warner Bros. World Abu Dhabi and Spooky Sea-son at SeaWorld Abu Dhabi both operate between 3 October to 1 November.  

This guide prepared by the best travel agency in UAE will provide you the information about what has been confirmed, what to expect according to previous years, and how much it will cost you. 

 

As 31 October falls on a Saturday, and the UAE weekend is usually Saturday and Sunday, you can easily enjoy the Halloween party without taking any leaves or day-off from your daily schedule. On Friday 30 October, there will be much action at various venues, while Saturday brunch will also mark its peak during this period.  

Sunday, 1 November 2026, is also the final day of the Spooktober and Spooky Sea-son period, so it's a great day to spend with family. Line-ups are always delayed at Abu Dhabi venues, so look for party and brunch events throughout the month. 

In case of a visit to two theme parks, multi-park passes should be considered. Some listings have offers of Yas Island multi park passes from AED 395 onwards. The multi park pass may include Warner Bros. World & SeaWorld. Comparing the cost with that of two separate tickets will help decide which one is better.
 

Warner Bros. World will be the most exciting choice for Halloween in Abu Dhabi in 2026 since the entire park is indoors. The official Spooktober site guarantees over 60 spooky characters, live performances, and candy hunt for visitors. 

SeaWorld Abu Dhabi is also indoor, and hence, it is convenient to visit during the mornings or during the day hours. Spooky Sea-son will be held from 3 October until 1 November 2026. The official website mentions an all-new Spooky Live Show at One Ocean, storytime with Juniper and a candy treasure hunt. 

Ticket price: The ticket price starts at AED 375 for adults and AED 290 for juniors. There are some platforms that provides tickets free for kids from 0 to 2 years old. Make sure to clarify this during booking. 

Best tip to plan your day: Two to three hours should be enough time to spend on the entertainment performances, the treasure hunt, and the main animal sections. Visit the SeaWorld park in the morning and then head to the Warner Bros. World in the afternoon, or vice versa. Both the parks are indoor parks, and hence, you can visit both on the same weekend without any issues of the harsh weather. 

The Corniche is a place which is best for long walk along the water where there is a beautiful view of the city skyline behind you. Visit during sunset hours for cooler weather and better lighting conditions. Dress in a costume based on the Halloween theme and take some photos. The evenings are the perfect time for this, so make sure that you visit before 6 pm. 

The Yas Bay Waterfront is an open place located nearby the water. It is close to the theme parks, which means that it is a perfect choice after visiting them. Take a walk wearing your special Halloween costume, take some photos and have a cup of coffee at the nearby cafe. 

People who live in villa areas like Al Reef and Khalifa City usually celebrate Halloween by trick or treating on 31 October evening. If you are one of these people, then it would be better to ask your neighbors or your community organization about the plans of the celebration. 

Some of the venues haven't announced their 2026 Halloween plans as of 29 September 2026. These include Yas Waterworld, Circuit X, Coya and hotel brunches. The Abu Dhabi ticketing sites like Platinum list and Fever didn’t have any Halloween parties listed yet. We'll be adding them here as soon as they announce their dates and prices officially. Till then, take into consideration only the confirmed ones. 

Yas Island would be your best choice for an easy trip. Both Warner Bros. World and SeaWorld are in nearby, and the WB Abu Dhabi hotel is adjacent to Warner Bros. World. All you need is a stroll or take the complimentary transportation, and you're at the parks. The Corniche is perfect for the visitors who are looking for the city to explore. Room rates tend to increase during Halloween weekend, therefore booking should be done well in advance.
