South Sound Halloween & Harvest Events

by

Welcome to the Sounds Fun Mom Halloween Event list!

UPDATED FOR 2020

This is our list of Kid Friendly Halloween Events around Tacoma, Auburn, Sumner, Federal Way, Orting, Dupont, Fife,  and your South Sound home!

These are events like carnivals or drive thru events, and many of them, but not all, are BEFORE Halloween.

If you are looking for a more traditional, “Trunk or Treat,” event happening on Halloween or Halloween weekend, we have a list of those here.

Disclaimer alert: Please note that we put together this, “Treat,” for you, but we are not the event organizers. We’ve provided links and ask YOU to confirm the details as mistakes can happen in round ups of this size. Many events also require pre-registration this year, and as always, cancellations due to Covid concerns, may also happen. Thanks for checking all the details for your family!
