Authentic Halloween experience at British Hills

▲“Masquerade Halloween Plan” with secret event

British Hills (Tenei Village, Fukushima Prefecture), which is celebrating its 30th anniversary, will welcome 2,000 people over the past five years from October 19th (Sat.) to 20th (Sun.) and 26th (Sat.) to 27th (Sun.), 2024. We will be holding a “Halloween event” this year as well, featuring the above events. In addition to special accommodation plans such as the “Masquerade Halloween Plan”, a new plan for adults with a masquerade party (masquerade ball) theme, and the “Halloween Night Stay Plan” that includes Halloween dinner, there will also be a “masquerade contest” held for the first time this year. We offer activities such as the “Halloween Parade,” which is a popular annual event in which people dress up in costumes and parade through British streets. There are also plenty of photo spots where you can enjoy Halloween-related gourmet food and autumn leaves. You can enjoy an authentic Halloween just like you would in another country, in an extraordinary space that will make you feel as if you have wandered into medieval England. *
