Spooky Village – A Free Family Halloween Event

Event Date: 
Saturday, October 24, 2026 - 1:00pm to 4:00pm

Join the third annual Spooky Village, a free, family-friendly Halloween celebration in Richmond Hill’s Historic Village.

Get the costumes ready and bring your little ghosts, goblins, superheroes and princesses for an afternoon of trick-or-treating, music, dancing and Halloween fun while exploring local businesses along Yonge Street.

All families will begin at Flex Space, where children can sign in, pick up their official treat bag and trail card, and get ready to follow the Spooky Village trick-or-treat route.

Participating businesses throughout the Historic Village will be welcoming children with nut-free Halloween treats as families make their way along the route.

Restrooms, first aid, and event support will also be available at the starting and ending points.

It’s a fun way for children to enjoy Halloween while families discover the shops, restaurants and services that make the Historic Village such a special part of Richmond Hill.

Beginning at 3:00 PM, head to the courtyard at the Richmond Hill Centre for the Performing Arts for even more free Halloween fun.

  • Halloween Dance Party starting at 3:00 PM
  • Free face painting starting at 3:00 PM
  • Free glitter tattoos starting at 3:00 PM
  • Costume Parade starting at 3:30 PM
  • Music, dancing, and family-friendly Halloween fun

Children are encouraged to show off their costumes and join the parade as we celebrate another Spooky Village together.

Registration helps estimate how many children will be attending so that there is enough candy for every child along the trick-or-treat route.

Walk-ins are welcome, but registering in advance helps us make the experience better for everyone.

Spooky Village is presented by the Village of Richmond Hill Business Improvement Area and brings families, local businesses and the community together for a fun and welcoming Halloween celebration in the heart of Richmond Hill.

While you’re exploring the route, take a moment to discover the businesses that call the Historic Village home. Your visit helps support the local shops, restaurants, and services that make our neighbourhood unique.
