Admission from $5.
Dark Harbor is Southern California's Halloween festival set aboard the historic Queen Mary in Long Beach. Visitors navigate haunted mazes themed around the ship's maritime history, including attractions centered on a collision that claimed lives, a ghostly figure in the first-class swimming pool, and a surgeon's gruesome experiments across multiple ship decks. The festival also features a carnival-themed maze with a sinister ringmaster, jack-o-lanterns, and cursed objects on display. Beyond the mazes, the event offers immersive attractions, live entertainment, carnival rides, themed bars and lounges, and food and drink options. The festival format allows guests to choose which experiences to explore. Visitors looking for theatrical scares and interactive Halloween entertainment will find multiple attractions spread across the ship and surrounding harbor.
