Bootanical: Stowe at Sea

Ahoy, mateys! Halloween is making waves at Stowe! Gather your crew, put on your favorite costume and set sail for Bootanical: Stowe at Sea, a family-friendly Halloween celebration with pirates, sea creatures and plenty of adventures to discover along the way. Young buccaneers can meet and interact with a live pirate entertainer and come dressed in festive costumes for a day of adventure at Stowe. (Themed costumes are extra fun, but any and all costumes are welcome for adventurers of all ages!) Kids can also stop by our face painting vendor (fees apply) for a new look, and dive into hands-on crafts and activities inspired by the ocean and all the mysterious creatures that might be lurking beneath the waves. Parents can grab a seasonal drink at one of our Stowe bars and enjoy the day of play. Food trucks will be on site with hot food options, and there will be grab-and-go treats in our Big Leaf Café.

Bootanical is also a big day for the Lost Hollow Children’s Garden, where families can browse our whimsical gallery of scarecrows in this year’s Scarecrow Hollow! And little pirates or mermaids will love to meet Lotty, our brand-new underwater friend and art piece made of recycled materials that kids can interact with.
