About the date

31 October, every year

Halloween’s calendar date stays the same each year, but its weekday changes. Use the upcoming dates to see whether the next Halloween falls during the week or on a weekend.

Local trick-or-treat hours, school celebrations, and Halloween parties may use different dates or times. Check the organiser’s schedule for your plans.
