Halloween Parade & Festivities in Downtown Fort Scott

Join us for the annual Halloween parade in Downtown Fort Scott as we trick-or-treat retail stores and businesses along Main Street.

Open to all ages!
Some pre-activities before the parade
The actual parade will begin at 11 am with hot dogs, chips, and drinks being served afterward to those in costume.


Prior to the parade, starting at 10:00 a.m., there will be special activities including pictures with a spooktacular backdrop at the City Scales building on North Main, face painting by Fort Scott High School thespians, and fun 
The parade trick-or-treats merchants along Main Street, starting at La Hacienda, south to 2^nd Street, crossing the street then heading north back to Skubitz Plaza.  Any businesses or organizations in the community, not located along Main Street, are welcome to set up a table on the sidewalk also providing treats, coupons, or other handouts for kids.  Children are encouraged to bring a sack or bag to collect treats along the parade route.
Following the parade, a free hot dog lunch will be served to kids in costumes.
