Trunk or Treat

The annual Trunk or Treat event is a free family trick or treating event on Saturday, October 26 (rain date Sun. Oct 27) and is open to all. Each year, children and adults visit Dedham Square for an afternoon of trick or treating and fun. The event spreads throughout all of Dedham Square all the way to the Registry of Deeds. Guests are encouraged to park in Dedham Square and visit Square businesses between 2-6pm for trick or treating, shopping, free face painting and live music on the way to the Registry of Deeds lot (at High and Ames St). All are encouraged to dress up in Halloween costumes (no scary or gore please).

At the Registry of Deeds lot, from 3-5pm kids receive treats from cars decorated by local businesses and organizations. Families also enjoy activities, inflatable obstacle course, games, crafts, live music, and a photo booth. Please park in Dedham Square. No parking at Registry of Deeds.
