Join us on Thursday, 31 October for a night of thrills and chills at our Halloween Festival on Majors Bay Road in Concord. From 5–9pm the street will come alive with a trick or treat trail, face painting, roving performers, live music, street games, and more. Grab a costume and get ready for a frightfully good time.
The Halloween Festival is proudly funded by the NSW Government in association with the City of Canada Bay and Majors Bay Chamber of Commerce.
Halloween on Majors Bay Road began as an initiative of the local business chamber with support from the City of Canada Bay. Over the years it has continued to grow into a popular community event that attracts thousands of people each year.
With the support of the NSW Government’s Open Streets Program, this year’s Halloween Festival will be bigger and better than ever. Check out some photos from last year's event:
