Family fun to continue in Swansea as seasons change

SWANSEA Council’s Singleton Boating Lake and crazy golf, the Southend Gardens crazy golf, Blackpill Lido and the Swansea Bay Rider land train will end this year’s operations this Sunday (September 24).

Family fun planned for the autumn includes a free-entry Spooks In the City on October 28 in the city centre St David’s Place, next to the former Iceland store.

It’ll feature a range of fun including entertainment, face painting, Halloween arts and crafts and dance shows.

Families will be able to ride a Halloween land train from Blackpill and Mumbles on the evenings of October 30 and 31. More: www.bit.ly/HGTrain23
