Aurora Downtown will be host to its annual Trick or Treat downtown event from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 29.
Costumes are encouraged, and all ages and abilities are welcome to join in he fun. Aurora Downtown, a group of downtown business and property owners, first was host to the event in 2015, which since become a family favorite.
“It’s such a fun, lively, event, we love to see the community’s creativity every year,” said Marissa Amoni, manager of Aurora Downtown.
The free event invites families to dress up and visit more than 40 participating locations in downtown Aurora. Small businesses, museums, and several restaurants, will be open with treats.
The event coincides with Sugar Skull City, a downtown-wide Day of the Dead celebration, and visitors can view ofrendas, painted storefronts, and more visual activities.
Participants can pick up a map at Santori Public Library, Aurora Regional Fire Museum, and David L. Pierce Art and History Center.
Locations will have orange paper pumpkins on their doors. The event will be held rain or shine.
