Downtown Trick or Treat welcomes the community back to Downtown Plattsburgh!

Spooky Storefront Decorations

(PLATTSBURGH, NY - October 3rd, 2024) - On Saturday October 26th, the City of Plattsburgh will be full of spooks, treats and maybe even a few tricks! The fourth annual Downtown Trick or Treat event will be held on Saturday October 26th from 12:00-2:00PM. 

 

The City of Plattsburgh in partnership with The Z Group Real Estate is hosting the fifth annual Downtown Trick or Treat event where participants can stop by over thirty downtown businesses for a treat between 12PM-2PM. This year’s downtown festivities will feature a Downtown Business Storefront decorating contest, with the winner chosen by the public, a dance performance by Center Stage Dance group, free face painting in Trinity park and more surprises to come! Amanda Dagley from Electric Zee will be set up in Trinity Park DJing a set of spook-tacular tunes! Participants do not have to follow a designated route around downtown but are asked to obey traffic laws and signals. 

 

“We’re thrilled to see the Downtown Trick or Treat event grow each year and bring so much joy to families in our community,” said Emma Stewart, Community Engagement Coordinator for the City of Plattsburgh. “This event is a wonderful opportunity for residents to come together, celebrate, and showcase the vibrant spirit of our downtown businesses. We can’t wait to see all the creative costumes and smiling faces again this year!”

 

The City of Plattsburgh will be transforming Trinity Park into a Spooky Park from 12PM-2PM, where local businesses and organizations that do not have a downtown storefront can participate in handing out treats. Costumes are not mandatory but highly encouraged! The Downtown Trick or Treat and Trinity Park Spooky Park events are free and no registration is required.
