Halloween on the Green Returns to Danbury – Everything You Need to Know

Danbury’s biggest Halloween bash is back. CityCenter Danbury and the Kiwanis Club of Greater Danbury are teaming up once again for the 33rd Annual Halloween on the Green, and it’s shaping up to be a spooky but kid friendly afternoon for families across the area.

• Who: CityCenter Danbury & Kiwanis Club of Greater Danbury
• What: The 33rd Annual Halloween on the Green
• When: Saturday, October 25, 2025 — from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.
• Where: CityCenter Green, Ives Street, Danbury
• Why: FUN!

The CityCenter Green will transform into a Halloween playground complete with trick-or-treating, live music, food, and plenty of photo-worthy costumes.

Kids can take part in the Children’s Costume Parade, where prizes will be awarded for the Most Original, Scariest, and cutest costumes. The first 800 children in costume will snag goodie bags courtesy of AFC Urgent Care, so it’s definitely worth showing up early.

There’ll be food from The Salvation Army, a photo booth for all your “ghoul squad” pics, and local vendors helping bring that downtown Danbury energy. The whole thing is free and open to the public, so there’s no excuse to miss out.

And if the weather decides to play tricks, the fun just moves inside — Patriot Garage, Level 4 — where the candy and costumes will carry on rain or shine.

So, grab your costume, pack up the kids, and get ready for a frightfully fun afternoon at Halloween on the Green.

I’ll tell you what I really like about this event — even though it draws a big crowd, you still have room to breathe. At most family events, the flow of foot traffic has no logical flow. Parents are chasing their kids around in zigzag patterns, and before you know it, your personal space is horrifically invaded. But at this one, there’s actual space to enjoy yourself and breathe your own breath.
