Lots of fall break fun in Örebro

Published September 26, 2023 / Updated September 24, 2026
The fall break in Örebro has something for everyone. Cozy movie nights, heart-pounding zombie runs, and fun family shows. And of course—plenty of spooky activities for those who dare.

Creative at Kulturkvarteret

During fall break, creativity takes center stage at Kulturkvarteret. Children’s Culture Night gets an early start on October 23, and the week will feature, among other things, performing arts, an open studio at Örebro Art Museum, and the Bubblan creative workshop at the City Library. Here, children and young people can explore their imagination through color, shape, and storytelling.

The Ghost Town in Örebro

The fall break will be extra spooky and cozy at five locations in Örebro. All week long, Karlslund, Wadköping, Slottsparken, the Natural History Museum, and Örebro Castle invite you to “Ghost Town in Örebro.” Expect spine-tingling events and exciting activities—for kids of all ages, and for adults, too.

Many people are walking along a path through a park. On either side of the path are giant skulls with various colorful patterns. The skulls are lit up. It’s dark outside.

Halloween in Vretstorp Park

On four Saturdays in October and November, Vretstorp Park is transformed into a spooky place with plenty of activities. Fortune-telling, a circus school, and a scary haunted house are just a few examples. There’s something for all ages. Once darkness has fallen over the park, the bravest visitors can also set out on a walk through the dark forest.

Fall Coziness in the Movie Theater

What would fall break be without a cozy time in front of the big screen? Both Bio Roxy and Filmstaden have fall break movie screenings on their schedules. There are movies for children and young people of all ages. From *Shaun the Sheep* and *Laban the Little Ghost* for the very youngest to thrillers and horror films for those who are old enough—and brave enough.

Zombie Run

Run for Your Lives is a fitness race that challenges you on multiple levels. Make your way through challenging obstacles while keeping an eye out for terrifying zombies. Or cheer on the runners from the sidelines. The race is guaranteed to get your heart pumping and have you laughing—whether you’re running or watching. Run for Your Lives takes place on October 24.
