Downtown Everett was full of Halloween spirit on October 31! From tiny superheroes and princesses to spooky creatures and plenty of four-legged friends, families came out to enjoy an afternoon of trick-or-treating, costumes, and community fun.
The Downtown Everett Association’s annual Downtown Trick-or-Treating event brought families and local businesses together for one of our favorite days of the year. Candy buckets were filled, storefronts got festive, and downtown was buzzing with little trick-or-treaters making their way from business to business.
Local businesses opened their doors and welcomed families with candy, treats, and plenty of Halloween spirit. It’s always fun to see downtown through the eyes of little trick-or-treaters, especially when every storefront has something different waiting around the corner.
Events like this are a great way to introduce families to downtown businesses, encourage people to explore, and give our community another reason to spend time together downtown.
We can’t forget about our furry friends! The Pet Parade brought an extra dose of Halloween cuteness to the day, with costumed pups and their humans showing off their creative side.
Hosted by Pawsome Park & Lodge, the parade was full of wagging tails, adorable outfits, and plenty of photo opportunities. From spooky to silly, these pups certainly understood the assignment. We’re pretty sure some of them deserve their own trick-or-treat bags!
A big thank-you to Pawsome Park & Lodge for helping make the parade such a fun part of the celebration.
A special thank-you to all the local businesses, organizations, volunteers, and community partners who helped make the day happen. Whether you handed out candy, decorated your storefront, helped organize activities, or brought your family downtown, you helped make this event what it is.
We’re especially grateful to our sponsors and backers for supporting this year’s celebration:
Spooky Sponsors: Puget Sound Energy (PSE), North Sound Media, KRKO, Everett Post, KXA, and dMap.
Bat Backers: Dawson Place and IBEW.
Your support helps us put on events that bring people together and create more opportunities for our community to connect with downtown.
And, of course, thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate! We loved seeing all the costumes, meeting so many families, and watching downtown come alive with Halloween fun.
