Queens County Farm adds Maze by Moonlight date for the 13th

Oct. 13, 2023 By Iryna Shkurhan

To make up for a rain cancellation, the city’s only corn maze at Queens County Farm in Floral Park is adding an extra date to their limited Maze by Moonlight lineup. 

If walking through a corn maze at night with just a flashlight wasn’t spooky enough, the newly added slot happens to fall on Friday the 13th. 

For the courageous night owls who want to take their spooky season to the next level, you can have the chance to complete the 43-acre maze beneath the starry night sky. It adds an extra level of challenge, and fun, to the experience.

The Amazing Maize Maze can also be completed during the daytime if you’re less spookily inclined every weekend until Oct. 28.

If you can’t make this limited time event tonight, it is also scheduled for Oct. 14, Oct. 21 and Oct. 27. Two time slots are available: 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. 

Tickets can be purchased online for $18, and $14 for those ages 4-11.
