Shaqtoberfest

- see all dates
Also on October 18, 2023, October 25, 2023, October 30, 2023, October 31, 2023.
Please note: there is no Shaqtoberfest scheduled for 2024.
Halloween spooks and scares return to one of our favorite haunts in a Shaq-tacular way! Shaqtoberfest is held at the historic Queen Mary, with a family-friendly pumpkin patch during the day and a Halloween/EDM walk-thru at night.
New in 2023, guests are invited to step back into the newly reopened interior of the "Grey Ghost", exploring the belly of the ship to see what spirits lurk in the dark damp corridors.
The experience runs from late September through Halloween Night.
During the day, Shaq Diesel’s Pumpkin Patch offers a traditional family-friendly Halloween experience. Kids can explore the attraction by stopping at one of the many trick-or-treat stations, pumpkin sculptures, or inflatable play zones. Children of all ages are encouraged to dress in their favorite Halloween costumes.
At night, a more ghastly side emerges, accompanied by an over-the-top light show mixing Halloween and EDM. Guest can brave haunted trails, as seafaring undead surface from their watery graves, and ghastly characters emerge from the seedy underbelly of the boardwalk. Some elements are restricted to 21+.
