Whether you're looking for something fun to do with the kids, a spooky date night, or a genuinely terrifying haunted house, there's no shortage of Halloween activities happening around the city.
Here are a few events worth checking out as October comes to an end.
1. ZooBOO at the Calgary Zoo
October 31 – November 1, 2026
Looking for a Halloween activity that's fun without being too scary?
ZooBOO at the Wilder Institute/Calgary Zoo is a great option for families with younger children.
Kids can dress up in their favourite costumes, enjoy Halloween-themed activities, visit treat stations, and explore the zoo.
It's a fun way to celebrate Halloween while enjoying one of Calgary's most popular family attractions.
2. Pumpkins After Dark at WinSport
Running through October 31, 2026
Imagine walking through an outdoor display filled with thousands of glowing pumpkins!
Pumpkins After Dark features elaborate carved pumpkin displays, illuminated sculptures, music, and special effects.
It's a great evening activity for families, couples, or anyone who loves Halloween.
Don't forget to dress warmly. It is Calgary in October, after all!
3. ScreamFest
October 29–31, 2026
If you're looking for something a little more intense, ScreamFest might be exactly what you're after.
Held at GMC Stadium, this popular Halloween attraction features haunted houses, carnival games, and plenty of scares.
This one's better suited to people who enjoy being frightened rather than families looking for a gentle Halloween experience.
4. Frights & Delights at The Confluence
October 30–31, 2026
The Confluence is hosting a two-day Halloween celebration with something for different age groups.
October 30 features an adults-only evening market with spooky activities.
October 31 brings a family-friendly celebration with crafts, games, trick-or-treating, and vendors.
It's a great opportunity to explore a historic part of Calgary while celebrating Halloween.
5. Halloween at Home
Sometimes the best Halloween memories happen right in your own neighbourhood.
Calgary has plenty of communities where families get into the Halloween spirit with decorated houses, creative costumes, and neighbourhood trick-or-treating.
If you're heading out with little ones, remember to bring a flashlight, dress for the weather, and watch for vehicles.
And if you're handing out candy, a well-lit walkway makes a big difference.
Enjoy Halloween, Calgary!
One of the things I love about Calgary is how much there is to do throughout the year.
From family-friendly celebrations to haunted attractions, there's something for just about everyone this Halloween.
Whatever your plans, have a safe and fun Halloween!
