Our festival is an all inclusive and family focused event that takes place on E. Hickory, E. Oak and Industrial streets. Festival goers can enjoy great food & drink, arts & crafts, and live music and dance, along with unique events like the PineBox Races, Coffin Races, a Twilight Lantern Parade, a community altar and a “Flight of Souls,” the “Cirque du Horror Musical,” a Pumpkin Patch and Costume Contest, story telling and performances from Denton ISD schools.
Come Join the Fun
Peruse the pumpkin patch, play games and activities for all ages, knock ‘em dead in the salsa cook-off, dance alongside street performers, and pick up a souvenir at the vendor booths featuring local art, crafts, and food. Cheer on your favorite team during the famous coffin races, and stick around for our lantern-lit twilight parade. But whatever you do, don’t miss your chance to see Denton’s very own Halloween musical, Cirque du Horror!
