In this beloved animated fantasy, Jack Skellington, the Pumpkin King of Halloween Town, discovers Christmas Town and sets out to bring Christmas home, with wonderfully unexpected results.
Come dressed as your favourite Tim Burton-inspired character and join us from 3pm for a festive costume crafting station, where you can create or add the finishing touches to your look.
Then, from 6pm, take part in our costume parade, with prizes up for grabs for the best dressed, before the film begins at 6.30pm.
Check out all the festivities happening throughout December and come along to Auckland Live Christmas in Aotea Square.
