Closed Make Hallowe'en an official bank holiday.

Closed on

Hallowe'en is becoming more and more popular in the UK. Most public attractions across the country celebrate Hallowe'en in some way, either by 'fancy dress' decorations, or attractions including live shows some of which draw huge crowds. There has already been a suggestion to move the May Day bank holiday to October, and Hallowe'en always coincides with school half term.
