October 31, 2026 | 8 Free Events in Toronto Today

A lot to do on a Saturday Halloween! There's a bigger list on the weekly post, but everywhere you look, there's an event today. Here are today's picks:

Halloween on Church Street
Church Street | 5p-late

Everything else pales in comparison to this street party. You'll see the best costumes you've ever seen, there are parties all along the street and it goes on all night. Do your Halloween and then come end your night on Church St.

Día de los Muertos
Wychwood Barns | 3p-10p

A celebration that always feels authentic and honours the culture.

Minions Halloween
Grange Park | 7p

From the mind behind the funeral for the Inconvenience Store, it's a group minion costume party. You can wear any costume, but there will be at least 20 minions and the plan is to surprise a local restaurant in costume for dinner, then wander downtown trick-or-treating and handing out candy.

Halloween Skate
College Park | 6:30p

Bring a costume and your skates and be part of a spectacle.

Halloween Community Salsa Class
Lula Lounge | 1p-2p

A community salsa class with a Halloween twist..

Halloween Portraits
Henry's Camera Scarborough | 2p-4p

Come in costume and get your Halloween portraits before you go out.

Scaryoke! Halloween Karaoke
Cassette | 8p

Halloween-themed and you get a full band behind you, which makes even a questionable song choice sound better.

Halloween Spooktacular
Sankofa Square | 12p-5p

A daytime Halloween event if you want to check out a more family friendly event.

HalloQueen
West Queen West Bia | 12p-4p

Trick-or-treating, a costume contest and festive activities along the strip.
