Little Halloween explorers enjoyed a spooktacular morning at today’s SEN-Sational Derry Halloween session with Mini-Melo Beats in the Guildhall.
Held beneath Luke Jerram’s stunning 7-metre sculpture Gaia in the Main Hall, the immersive sensory-friendly experience provided a welcoming and inclusive environment where families could relax, play and enjoy the magic of Halloween together.
The sessions continue throughout the week, with limited spaces available. Book your place here: https://derryhalloween.com/whats-on-calendar/little-horrors/
