MONDAY 31st at 4 – 7.30pm.
Good to Know: We went here last year (Saturday Night then) and it was really good, so many families, great atmosphere! However this also meant that all the local houses were slammed with kids and many had run out of TREATS very early on, like by 6-7pm. Our advice is come early then go elsewhere for more trick and treat (or if you don’t want your kids to have too many chocolates or sweets then come later lol).
Lots of events this year are being held over the weekend instead of actually on Halloween night – great for younger kids and those kids who want to Haloween all weekend.
We’re brewing up a Halloween Spooktacular filled with devilish fun, ghoulish delights, frightening Halloween Craft on Saturday 29 and Sunday 30 as well as trick or treating from 2 pm – 4 pm, Sunday 30 October
Pick out your spookiest costume and get ready for a day of spooktacular fun! 
Your little gremlins can enjoy our popular Trick Or Treat Trails and Scary-Tales Outdoor Cinema which will be screening Scooby Doo at 7pm. We can only handle so many little monsters, so bookings are essential. (There are limited spots available, so hurry!)
Cairns Esplanade Saturday 2-6pm
Pakmag, well known for their amazing Halloween Parties, are having the Pakmag Spooky Spectacular at The Cairns Esplanade on Saturday 29th October from 4-6pm, followed by a movie screening of The Addams Family 2 from 6:00pm.
If you are interested in finding out more we suggest you go directly to their Facebook page for more details.
We found some great costume ideas on the MyDeal website.
We have ordered from these guys before and our products arrived in Cairns within a week.
Some of the Baby and Toddler costumes are very cute, Little Elephant Bunting, Sweetheart Monster and the Adorable Fire Breathing Dragon costumes in particular.
For Girls Costumes (definitely not cute) check out Zombie Nurse, Dark Doll and Royal Vampire Gothic Medieval Dracula and for Boys Costumes there’s some equally horrid ones including Open Heart Surgeon Zombie Doctor, Sinister Jester, Swanky Vampire (actually quite cute) and Wicked Ringmaster!
For Trick and Treat friendly houses and suburbs we recommend checking out the Halloween in Cairns, Atherton Tablelands and FNQ Facebook page
This is a great page as it tells you which suburbs, streets and houses are participating in Halloween.
Loads more events ot be added so please keep on checking back here
We also found this great collection of Healthy Halloween Recipes for kids, posted on the Halloween in Cairns page. Too good not to share!
SHOP XMAS!
