🎃 2023 Halloween Trick-or-Treat Hours for Bloomington

The City of Bloomington trick-or-treat hours for 2023 have been set for Tuesday, October 31 from 5:30 - 8:30 p.m., rain or shine.

Please consider these Halloween tips to help keep children and families safe:

• Trick-or-treat during designated hours and only go to those homes that have a light on to welcome trick-or-treaters.
• Carry a flashlight to light the way on streets and sidewalks. A flashlight or glow sticks will also help illuminate children for motor vehicles.
• Dress your children in, or bring along, some type of reflective material for dusk and later trick-or-treating. A reflective jacket works well, as do reflecting trick-or-treat bags. Sunset will be at 6:46 p.m. on Halloween.
• Cross the street at corners, using traffic signals and crosswalks.
• Drive slowly, anticipate pedestrian traffic and turn your headlights on earlier in the day to spot children from greater distances.
• Slow down and be especially alert in residential areas. Children are excited on Halloween and may move in unpredictable ways.
• Take extra time to look for children at intersections, on medians and on curbs and behind landscaping.
• If you celebrate Halloween, enjoy the holiday!
