Halloween Parade, Trunk or Treat & Dance Party

Come out for the Trunk or Treat in Shepard Park! All are welcome, and the event is wheelchair accessible.

 

The Youth Commission has proudly hosted this beloved Halloween tradition for more than 40 years, bringing families together to celebrate with fun, food, and community spirit.

The evening begins at 4:00 PM in the Lake George High School Gymnasium with games, snacks, and a Halloween Bag giveaway. Each child will also receive a decorated pumpkin to take home.

 

At 5:00 PM, the Halloween Parade kicks off, led by the Lake George Fire Department, a lively drumline, a stilt walker, and community participants in costume. The parade will march down Canada Street, concluding at Shepard Park for the start of the next big event—the Trunk or Treat Block Party.

 

From 5:15 PM to 9:00 PM, Canada Street will transform into a festive Halloween village featuring:

 

● Trunk or Treat vehicles full of candy and surprises

● Live entertainment including jugglers, face painters, costumed characters, and performances by the Gem Theater Witches and Adk-Raqs Bellydance troupe, an aerial performance, and more.

● Dance party area for kids and families to enjoy the music together

 

Hungry attendees will also find a lineup of local food trucks and vendors, including Weiner Wagon, All Things Delicious, All Fired Up, and Cooley’s Ice Cream, plus a hot cocoa and hot cider station to keep everyone warm.
