Halloween Weekend and Beyond!

Start Planning with this Guide

By Chanin Victor October 27, 2017

DISCLAIMER:  As we head into another Halloween weekend, just breathe and try to remember it is a marathon and not a sprint.  You do not have to do everything and be everywhere.  Yes, there are a plethora of activities all around the city.  Yes, it is guaranteed two or more friends will be at each event and you will invariably run into so many people you know and will then hear about or be invited to yet another event...it will happen!  Just remember, Halloween is for the kiddos and they could pretty much have fun with a cardboard box, so do NOT stress if you cannot be at all the fun events.  With that being said...

There are so many a-m-a-z-i-n-g activities this weekend AND over the next couple weeks that you will not want to miss. 

Of course, you can check out daily events in our CALENDAR.  

For those of you who have not made it over to Mr. Bones Pumpkin Patch (or still need to use up some tickets), they are open until October 30th (9am-9pm) and it is a blast!  Loved this bouncy jumper HERE


Mr. Bones Boo-tique...the petite version of the Mr. Bones experience features an all-new, carefully curated Halloween boutique! Bursting with stunning photo opportunities and our very favorite activities, the Boo-tique brings you the fun and whimsy of Mr. Bones in a whole new way.  Plus, there are adult refreshments too. Plus, they are open on Halloween!
