For most kids, the best part of Halloween is the trick-or-treating on Halloween night. But the season becomes even more exciting when they can attend multiple trick-or-treat events. As a mom, I love seeing my kids get extra use out of the costumes I bought, and it’s a joy to watch their excitement at our community’s fairs and festivals.
Below is a carefully curated list of FREE or low-cost community trick-or-treat events, trunk-or-treats, fairs, festivals, and fun fall activities happening in and around Upland, Claremont, and La Verne. We've worked hard to gather all the local events in one place for you to easily access. Be sure to check back often, as we will continue updating the list as more events are announced!
