Halloween events in Llanelli are looking good this year as there is plenty to choose from! October 31 is just around the corner, so here’s a round-up of what’s going on in town and the surrounding area in 2017. I’ve also included some non-spooky half term events in the round-up. Events are divided into the following categories: Discos and parties, outdoor fun, indoor fun, non-Halloween.
