Trick or Treating in Downtown Highland Park

Head to
Downtown Highland Park on Thursday, October 24 for some “spooktacular” Halloween
festivities!

Retailers throughout the central business district of Downtown Highland Park
will be handing out candy to costumed kids trick or treating from 3:00 to 5:00
pm as a fun and safe way to celebrate Halloween. Enjoy the festive hocus pocus and
treats while shopping through the 130+ retail locations in Downtown Highland
Park!



 



But beware,
the fun doesn’t stop there! Stop by Port Clinton Square from 3:00 to 6:00 pm
where families can enjoy live music, hayrides, pony rides and train rides for
children. In addition, Renaissance Place will be hosting a number of
exciting Halloween-themed activities. Enjoy a photo booth, cotton candy,
tattoos, a DJ, and street entertainers.
