For the whole family
Trick or treat? Both! The Disgusting Food Museum offers equal parts horror and laughter – a perfect match for Halloween. The exhibition showcases some of the world’s most revolting dishes (with a few “treats” in the mix).
At Biograf Spegeln – an independent arthouse cinema – 13 horror films will lurk in the dark during Halloween week. But that’s not all – on November 1, Spegeln hosts a spooky evening with free admission, where string musicians fill the foyer with eerie tunes from famous horror movies.
A different kind of drama awaits at Sherlocked, an elaborate escape room experience set in a Victorian world, complete with live actors and mysterious storylines to explore. (From age 12.)
Fancy good food along with fun activities? Try Boulebar, which combines French-style boule and bistro dining; O’Learys Malmö Entré, offering bowling and crowd-pleasing dishes; or LEAP Padel Center, where you can try indoor skydiving in a wind tunnel before sitting down for a well-earned meal.
There’s no wind tunnel at Teknikens och Sjöfartens Hus (The Museum of Technology and Maritime History), but you can explore a real submarine and Wisdome Malmö – a dome-shaped arena where complex topics come to life through breathtaking 3D films.
For the youngest ones
At Funnys Äventyr, Malmö’s carefully designed story-themed playhouse, kids can ride the “story-go-round” and play alongside beloved Scandinavian storybook characters like Bamse – Sweden’s most famous cartoon bear, known for his kindness and super-strength – Moomin, Alfie Atkins, Pettson, and others, all brought to life in imaginative settings.
And for a fun dose of fright, Skräckveckan (“Horror Week”) takes over Folkets Park from 27 October to 1 November, with free admission to all events.
See you there (if you dare)!
