Filoli’s Nightfall returns September 26–November 1

With Practical Magic 2 casting its spell in theaters this September, witchy fall storytelling is having a real moment, and Filoli is bringing that energy to life in person.

This year’s twist: nature is “overtaking” the historic estate after dark, with a witch’s spell reclaiming the House and grounds, plus a brand-new miniature railway debuting for 2026.

• 1,000+ illuminated jack-o’-lanterns and pumpkins throughout the estate
• 200+ scarecrows lining the walk to the redwoods
• 1,000 ft of brand-new miniature railway track with 8 looping trains

Buy tickets in advance.
