Featured
The top of your county’s Halloween page and the national page.
- Sponsored card at the top of your county’s Halloween page
- Sponsored card above the full list on the national Halloween events page
- “Book tickets” button at the top of your listing
- We check and complete your dates, prices, photos and description
- Views and clicks report on 2 November
Spotlight
Everything in Featured, plus the homepage all through October.
- Everything in Featured
- One of the first three cards in the homepage Halloween strip, the first thing after the search box all through October

Prices are per venue for the 2026 season, plus VAT at 23%. A slot runs from the day it goes live until your listing’s last date. From 19 October, Featured is €19 and Spotlight €39, plus VAT.
10 clicks or your money back
If Kids Patch sends fewer than 10 clicks to your website or booking page by
31 October, we refund you in full. Every link we send carries utm_source=kidspatch,
so you can check the numbers in your own analytics too.
How it works
From free listing to sponsored slot in three steps.
- 1
Claim your listing
Find it on the Halloween events page and click Claim this business. It’s free. If we emailed you about your listing, the link in that email claims it straight away.
- 2
Choose a slot
Once your claim is approved, sign in to your portal with the same email, open Promote and pick Featured or Spotlight for each venue. Pay by card on Stripe’s secure checkout.
- 3
Go live
Your sponsored card goes live within a few hours. We also check your dates, prices, photos and description, and email your report on 2 November.
What stays the same
Sponsorship buys a labelled slot. It doesn’t buy your place in the list.
The main list isn’t for sale
Sponsored cards sit in their own labelled block above it. Your listing also keeps its usual place in the list.
Verified stays free
The Verified badge comes from claiming your listing, not from paying.
Nobody gets hidden
We don’t hide other listings or rate anyone. Parents still see every Halloween event we know about.
