11am-4pm | Annual Boo Carre Halloween Haunt! 

The one-day kid-centric event encourages costumes for all ages and will feature live music, children’s activities, a spooktacular Spooky Second Line, and trick-or-treating. Children wearing a costume are eligible to receive a free Boo Carre tote bag for trick-or-treating in the French Market District. One bag per child, while supplies last. 

Your event experience will begin in Dutch Alley, in the 900 block of N. Peters Street, where our Trick-or-Treat (TOT) bag distribution will take place at the festival information booth alongside our music stage and kid’s activities including Pixie Dust Biodegradable Glitter, Adorn Me Antoinette, The Baby Dolls, Face Painting, and Balloon Art!
