Saturday, October 31 | Pearl Street and Beyond

Downtown is the spookiest place to be on Halloween with Munchkin Masquerade and other family events, as well as costume parties and live music for the grown-up ghouls and goblins.

During the day you can attend Boulder Symphony's Family Halloween Special and still have time for trick-or-treating after. Once the sun sets and the munchkins have cleared the sidewalks, many downtown restaurants and bars are hosting Halloween-themed events including Zombie Night at West End Tavern and Halloween Extravaganza with DJ Jasonic at Shine. Keep checking the online events calendar for an updated list of events and parties on the 31st.
