The Taupō town centre is set to come alive with the magic and excitement of Halloween! It's one of our favourite times of the year, with all the spook-tacular decorations, freaky costumes, delicious treats, and a chance for local kids to trick or treat in a safe, fun environment.

Join us in the towncentre this year as our local shops open their doors, each one heaving with treats, to join in on the festivities.  The map for treat hunting will be released on our facebook page.

But that's not all! We have two great options to shake off that sugar-fueled energy.  We’re partnering with Taupō District Council’s Shannon Hanson in her quest to keep the town tidy during this freaky festival.  She will be running the Pick or Treat rubbish pickup at the same time from the south end of the domain. 

We will also have the bouncy castles at Gascoigne St Reserve to await eager jumpers.  So grab the kids, walk the streets of the CBD to hunt for treats, go see Shannon for rubbish gathering and a bbq sausage, and then make your way to the bouncy castles at the north end of town!

Safety and fun are our top priorities, so we kindly remind all attending families to ensure children are accompanied by adults throughout the festivities.

It's more than just an event – it's where every child gets a chance to be whoever they dream to be, even if it's just for an afternoon.
