Halloween and Fall Events Across the U.S.

Communities and attractions across the United States are marking Halloween 2026 with haunted tours, decorated neighborhoods, parades and family events. East Dudley Avenue in Westfield, New Jersey, was named the nation’s top trick-or-treat street in Reese’s contest; other celebrations are planned in Los Angeles, Wilmington, Marion, Beaufort, Philadelphia, Iowa’s NewBo district, New York City, Mississippi, Lee County, Lancaster and York counties, Imperial Beach, Brunswick and the Klamath Basin. Activities include ghost experiences, pumpkin picking, family parties, paranormal investigations, sensory-friendly celebrations, costume contests, scavenger hunts, hayrides and themed races; organizers and police advise staying in well-lit areas and using sidewalks. Milwaukee’s November arts calendar also features theater, dance and music, including Milwaukee Ballet productions and gospel and bluegrass concerts.
