Halloween family fun in St. Louis

Take a night hike guided by the light of Jack O'Lanterns at the Jack O'Lantern Trail in Faust Park. This Halloween-themed event includes games, stories, rides on the carousel and trick-or-treating. Costumes are not required but family-friendly costumes are welcome. 

Dress up in costume and enjoy a candy stroll at the Kirkwood Performing Arts Center at the Kirkwood Spooktacular. Bring your own candy bag to collect lots of sweet treats at this free event! 

Kids can trick or treat, and families can enjoy festive Halloween music, a pumpkin carving contest and more at the Great Pumpkin Glow in downtown Maplewood. The streets in downtown Maplewood will be glowing with luminaries and pumpkins, and businesses will be decked out for the season. 

Pirates, pumpkins, and yo-ho-ho a bunch of candy is what you'll find at Pirates and Pumpkins this October at the St. Louis Aquarium at Union Station. Guest can test if they've got what it takes to join the pirate crew by walking the plank, digging for buried treasure and making their own pirate hats.

Families and kids of all ages can enjoy festive decorations, entertainers, many of your favorite Zoo exhibits and lots more at the Saint Louis Zoo's nighttime, non-scary Halloween experience Boo at the Zoo!

Boo at the Zoo is a long-time St. Louis family favorite, with fun, spellbinding decorations and great photo opportunities, spooktacular entertainment as actors bring the decorated areas to life, interaction with the animals, fun at the 4-D Theater, Conservation Carousel, and more.

Celebrate fall with a Fall Festival and Pumpkin Glow at Des Peres Park. Entertainment and activities include food trucks, Party Animals Mobile, hayrides, live music, face painting and balloon artists, inflatables, the Little Dreamer's Barnyard, and a glow-in-the-dark foam party.

This free, family-friendly night out features pumpkins, crafts, games and more.
