BanjerDan returns to "Filoli Nightfall", Woodside, CA!
BanjerDan returns to Filoli Nightfall! “By day, Filoli is a house frozen in elegance. By night, it's frozen in something else entirely. Wander into a Halloween harvest party in the Meadow, pumpkins, music, firelight, and slowly notice the mansion behind you isn't quite right. Something has taken root inside. Follow the trail of clues through a house reclaimed by nature, into a glowing woodland, and all the way to a witch's hidden village, where a century-old enchantment is finally coming undone. New this year: • A spectacularly spooky and enchanting miniature train display with 1,000 feet of track and eight looping trains. • Giant witches’ cauldron • The Witches’ grove • Even more eery pumpkin scarecrows • This is Nightfall: one story, told across an entire estate.” Filoli Mansion & Gardens, 86 Cañada Road, Woodside, CA 94062; 650.364.8300 Get your tickets NOW at filoli.org/nightfall/ BanjerDan (Dan Mazer) is a “banjo-centric” acoustic musician and entertainer based in Santa Cruz County, CA.
