Downtown Ann Arbor Trick-or-Treating & Costume Parade is Oct. 30

Critters and butterflies, ghosts and goblins, superheroes and their sidekicks are invited to downtown Ann Arbor for our 21th annual Downtown Trick-or-Treating & Costume Parade on Sunday, October 30, 2022. Over 30 businesses will be ready to hand out treats and maybe a few tricks to costumed characters. Participating businesses will fly black and orange balloons at their entrances.
11 – 11:30 a.m. Costumed kids gather at Main and William to parade down Main Street. Treats provided by Old National Bank.
11:30 a.m. Trick-or-Treater Parade down Main Street led by Literati Bookstore. Parents are welcome to walk with their kids.
11:30 a.m. – 3 p.m. Downtown Trick-or-Treating!! Main Street Area businesses invite all costumed characters to trick-or-treat.  Look for black and orange balloons in store fronts to see who’s participating!

Make sure to stop by Literati Bookstore (124 E. Washington) for a spooky kid’s book display, spooky photo-op, Adult & Children’s Costume Contest, and a haunted children’s floor!!  Also, the Ann Arbor District Library will be hosting a costume contest (343 S. 5th Ave.)
“Downtown Trick-or-Treating brings joy to the neighborhood,” said Sandra Andrade, Executive Director, Main Street Area Association. “The business community enjoys this event almost as much as the children. I highly recommend making your way downtown between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. on October 30 whether or not you have kids in tow, it’s a lot of fun and worth the trip!”
All activities are free and open to the public. For a trick-or-treating map and list of other fun happenings for Halloween visit mainstreetannarbor.org.For more information, click here
