About Halloween at the Heard
Experience Collin County’s premier family-friendly Halloween event at Heard Natural Science Museum & Wildlife Sanctuary.
Halloween at the Heard features a safe environment to experience the joy of trick-or-treating along the eerie Dinosaurs Live! Live-Size Animatronic Dinosaurs trail. Families will enjoy an evening full of fun activities, including a presentation of the movie Luca on the Heard’s outdoor amphitheater stage.
The museum will close early at 3 p.m. to the public on the day of the event to prepare for Halloween at the Heard. The museum will not reopen until the special event begins at 6 p.m.
