About the event

The Roscoe Village Halloween Block Party is a beloved neighborhood tradition that brings spooky fun and festive vibes to the heart of Chicago’s Roscoe Village. Held each October on Roscoe Street between Damen and Oakley, this all-ages event transforms the block into a Halloween haven with trick-or-treating, kids’ crafts and activities, a costume parade, and plenty of seasonal surprises.Families, friends, and neighbors come together for an afternoon of community celebration, with live music, food vendors, and local businesses joining in the spirit. Whether you’re a tiny ghost, a superhero, or just in it for the cider, the Roscoe Village Halloween Block Party offers a safe and exciting way to celebrate Halloween in one of Chicago’s most charming neighborhoods.The Festival portion of the event will occur on N. Halsted Street between Aldine Avenue and Brompton Avenue from 11:00am to 6:00pm with vendor promenades set up on the adjacent/intersecting streets. Music, street performers, a dedicated kids' craft-and-play area, and other Halloween-themed activities will occur throughout the day. Beginning at 6pm, N. Halsted Street will be cleared to make room for the 7pm Halloween Parade kickoff, with vendors still able to utilize their booth locations on intersecting streets up to the 10:00pm event end.
