McKinley Park Businesses Transform 35th Street for Annual Halloween Trick-or-Treating Event

By Socialhood News · Il/Chicago/Mckinley Park · October 25, 2025

McKinley Park families are gearing up for a spooktacular celebration as the annual Trick or Treating on 35th Street returns this Saturday, October 25, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. The popular community event invites costumed children and their families to visit participating businesses along West 35th Street between South Ashland and South Archer avenues.

This year's event is part of a larger Halloween celebration throughout the neighborhood, with the McKinley Park Halloween Guide (mckinleypark.news/halloween) serving as the central resource for all spooky festivities. The guide features a comprehensive Halloween Calendar and Trick or Treat Map to help families navigate the day's offerings. Local shops and restaurants are busy preparing treat stations and Halloween decorations to welcome the hundreds of children expected to participate in what has become one of the neighborhood's most anticipated autumn traditions.

Residents interested in contributing to the neighborhood's Halloween festivities still have time to submit their own events, trick-or-treating locations, or Halloween photos to the McKinley Park Halloween Guide.
