About This Event

Event Date: Wednesday, October 30th from 5:00-7:30pm
Event Location: Spencer Adams Parking Lot (Located on W. Victoria St. between Chapala & Victoria St.)

REGISTRATION DUE: FRIDAY, OCTOBER 10TH, 2025 BY 6:00PM

Event Overview

All vendors must pre-register—no same-day sign-ups.

Decorate your car, truck bed, trailer, or the space next to your vehicle (not just the trunk) with a family-friendly Halloween theme. Keep everything within your assigned parking space.

Bring 1,000 pieces of commercially pre-packaged candy (about 2–3 large Costco-size bags) to share with trick-or-treaters.

Optional: Enter the Trunk Decorating Contest for First, Second, or Third Place prizes.
Let’s make this Trunk-or-Treat safe, fun, and spooktacular for everyone!
