Imagine the vintage-era village of Heritage Acres, bathed in dramatic lighting and accented by glowing hand-crafted lanterns, carved pumpkins and creative decor. This is the backdrop for costumed performers, live musicians, projections and artistic installations which enliven every beautifully weathered corner of this heritage setting for Enchanted – Halloween at Heritage Acres.
After a one year hiatus, Enchanted Halloween at Heritage Acres is back for its third season, providing people from all over Vancouver Island with a unique, unforgettable autumn experience, featuring expanded dates, many new displays, improved ticketing options and a new, family focused charitable partner.
