The all-new Enchanted Kingdom at Slane Castle is now open and wowed guests over the weekend as they stepped through the magic portal to be met with talking trees, magical creatures of ice and fire moving through the grounds, sculptures of ice and a multidimensional parallel world of art and magic. The all-new land immerses guests in a mystical world of fantasy. There are bioluminescent creatures with a dreamlike quality and breathtaking new experiences with exhilarating special effects culminating in a spectacular light show as Slane Castle crystallises before your eyes.
