Pack your costumes, gather the family, and head to the Washington Coast for a weekend of Halloween fun in Seabrook. Halloweekend returns October 23-24 with pumpkin patch adventures, a glowing haunted village trail, costume parades, trick-or-treating, live entertainment, and festive celebrations for all ages. From daytime family activities to evening Halloween festivities, Halloweekend transforms Seabrook into a playful autumn destination filled with seasonal memories.
Friday: Pumpkin Patch & Haunted Village Glow Night
Friday's festivities begin at Barn Hill Park, where families can climb aboard a hay bale tractor ride and travel to a festive pumpkin patch experience designed just for Halloweekend.
Children can select their own pumpkins from the staged pumpkin patch using kid-sized wheelbarrows before heading into the decorating tent. Guests will have the option to carve or paint pumpkins with supplies, stencils, and guidance available throughout the afternoon. A featured pumpkin carver will also be on-site, demonstrating techniques and creating showpiece pumpkins for the evening festivities.
Live music and seasonal treats create a relaxed fall atmosphere while families decorate together and prepare their pumpkins for the night's glow walk.
As the afternoon winds down, decorated pumpkins will be collected and illuminated along the Haunted Village Trail, creating a glowing path through town. Families can then follow the Pumpkin Glow Walk toward Town Hall, where the evening concludes with the Monster Mash Ball featuring music, dancing, costumes, and Halloween fun for all ages.
