Find the best Halloween fun with this BIG list of Minnesota Trunk or Treat events all throughout the state in 2023 – complete with dates and times.
NOTE: We are still in the process of updating this list!! You will see notes along the way of what is not updated yet. We’ll continue to update until Halloween. Please share with us any that are missing or not yet updated!
My kids love dressing up every year for Halloween and getting a stash of candy…I can’t think of any kid that doesn’t love doing that!
Many families still go door-to-door for trick-or-treating, while others may choose alternatives for a number of reasons (medical issues, staying up late on a school night, etc.).
Here’s an option you may want to consider: Trunk or Treat! Trunk or Treat events have been taking place for quite a while as an alternative (or addition!) to door-to-door trick-or-treating.
Many churches have been holding annual events for years, and now some cities, clubs and other organizations are hosting their own events.
To help you out, we’ve compiled a list of Minnesota Trunk or Treat events. Some of them are drive-thru events in which you’ll see some sights and get candy at the end of a route, while others will have you moving from trunk to trunk to get candy.
Besides the normal trunk or treat and drive-thru events, this year’s list includes outdoor Halloween-themed events in which kids get treats, even if they’re not marketed specifically as a “trunk or treat” event.
Our hope is that this gives you plenty of options to choose from so you can have the most fun possible!
We’ve tried to include as many as we can, but please leave a comment or email chrysa @thriftyminnesota.com if you know of any we missed that you feel we should include.
For each of the events below, click on the links for further information. Note that some require advance registration.
We have tried to include as many FREE events in Minnesota on the list as we could find, but some have a small admission fee and we have noted that.
The list is alphabetized by the town name, so be sure to check the date and time. If you don’t want to scroll through the whole list, you can click on the orange bar below and select by city.
