Get ready for a frightfully fun night! Henderson County Parks and Recreation and the Friends of Downtown Hendersonville announce the return of the annual Treat Street Carnival, set to take place on Halloween evening, Thursday October 31 from 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm on Main Street. This family-friendly event promises an evening filled with ghoulish delights, thrilling activities, and spine-chilling entertainment for all ages. Mars Candy has generously provided extra candy this year for the downtown merchants and contributors to distribute.
Trick or treating kicks off at 5:00 pm along Main Street from Allen Street to Sixth Avenue. In addition, there are many contributor booths from community organizations and businesses to fill up Main Street, and many of your favorite merchants will have candy and treats at their stores.
Treat Street will include a costume contest and Monster Mash dance party by Sound Extreme DJ. A variety of inflatables, kids’ activities and plenty of spooky fun will be provided by Kids Zone sponsor, Biltmore Church.
The costume contest and Monster Mash will be in the 100 block in front of the Historic Courthouse between First and Second avenues along Main Street.
