Downtown Children's Halloween is a safe option for children to enjoy Halloween festivities in Downtown Durango.
The little ghosts and goblins fill the streets of Downtown Durango on October 31 for the Children’s Halloween Event. This is a fun and safe option for kids to trick or treat in costume at participating merchants in Downtown Durango. See below for parking information.
Approximately 75-100 merchants on Downtown Main Avenue and East Second Avenue will participate in the event by handing out candy or non-candy items to children 10 and under in costume, accompanied by an adult.
Children’s Halloween will also include a Children's Carnival and Trunk-or-Treat at TBK Bank, with games offered by the Boys and Girls Club of La Plata County. The games are free for children 14 and under and offer additional fun activities on Halloween night. In addition to the games, approximately 10-15 businesses will do a Trunk-or-Treat and hand out goodies to the kids. TBK Bank generously sponsors this event. All donations will support the Boys and Girls Club of La Plata County. Please note there is no event parking in the TBK Bank Parking Lot. Please see our parking tips below.
