If you’re the kind of family who enjoys a fiendishly good fright, or if you want a dastardly date night – batten down the hatches because FEAR ISLAND is coming!
This June, Cockatoo Island awakens as a terrifying nightmare. Starting on Friday the 13th, and running over the weekend, prepare to be plunged into a world of chilling thrills and unexpected horrors.
Are you brave enough to face the darkness?
Dare to set foot on historic Cockatoo Island, a place where the veil between worlds feels thinner than usual, especially as Friday the 13th arrives. While Sydney comes alive this weekend, Cockatoo Island brings a different kind of energy entirely with its two terrifying haunted tunnels, The Haunted and The Asylum – places where the boundary between the living and the dead doesn’t just blur, it actively seeks to ensnare you.

Prepare to be swallowed whole by an immersive experience that twists familiar landmarks into a heart-stopping playground of fear. Every step will leave you breathless, every shadow will play tricks on your mind, and every corner could conceal a pulse-pounding encounter.
Escape the clutches of the haunted tunnels, but the fear doesn’t end there. Discover a whole island teeming with spine-tingling delights, where Cockatoo Island’s sinister secrets feel even more unsettling under the shadow of Friday the 13th. Let its dark history send an extra chill down your spine.
Warning: FEAR ISLAND’s later hours deliver heart-pounding terror not suitable for those under 18. As the night deepens, so does the dread.
- Mild sessions are 4 to 5:30 on Saturday and Sunday
- Scary Sessions 5 to 6:30 on Friday and 6 to 7:15 on Saturday
- Terrifying sessions 7 to 8:30 pm on Friday, 7:45 to 8:30 on Saturday and 6 to 7 on Sunday
Forget those predictable haunted houses! FEAR ISLAND isn’t just a visit; it’s an interactive nightmare in which you become part of the story. Face your deepest fears as special effects, live scare actors, and unexpected horrors assault your senses – you never know what (or who) is lurking around the next corner.
When you emerge from the darkness, keep the thrills going with expert special effect makeup demos that will leave your friends screaming, catch a chilling flick on the outdoor cinema (Friday only, 7 pm) or learn Michael Jackson’s iconic Thriller dance and own the dance floor with moves that’ll raise the dead.
Don’t miss your chance to win bone-chilling prizes – tokens to commemorate your survival of an unforgettable night of fear and fun on FEAR ISLAND! Get into the spirit by dressing up in your scariest costume; show us what truly haunts your nightmares. We encourage you to join the fun, but it’s not mandatory. Brave guests who face the deepest terrors will also have the opportunity to preserve their genuinely frightened faces with complimentary TERRIFIED Tunnel photos – proof you made it out alive.
With tickets starting at just $25 for under 13 and $40 for adults, plus easy access by chartered event ferries every 20 minutes from Parramatta and Circular Quay, FEAR ISLAND is the ultimate experience for families of all ages. Get your tickets online today.
