Halloween Events 2020 : The Year of the Car

Looking for local fun Halloween events, but nervous about crowds?

What if you could do all the normal Halloween activities, but safely? You can! Don’t miss out on these festive and innovative ways to safely celebrate.

You’ll be using your car this year. Literally, Halloween in your car. This is new. Don’t miss out!

Here’s what’s happening for Halloween 2020 in Ventura County:

These Halloween Events Are For Everybody

These activities are for grandmas and moms with little ones, for couples needing an outing, and for anyone sick and tired of being locked up.

It’s for those of you who miss haunted houses, costume parties, ostentatious Halloween stores, and trick-or-treating at the malls, for you who miss the little voices of trick-or-treaters at your front door.

And it’s for school-aged kids who used to enjoy classroom costume parades and school parties but are stuck at home instead.

Prices range from $5 to $70-ish, so be sure to sign up EARLY.

Newsflash: Drive-thru Trick-or-Treat has turned out to be very popular, so sign up asap! Events are selling out.
