The story goes that more than three decades ago, Downtown businesses joined together to host the only business district trick or treat event in the nation. It even got national news coverage for being innovative in the era of crazy trick or treating stories. And ever since then the businesses has been inviting kids and their families in the well-lit shopping district along Main Street. We continue the tradition of closing the street to vehicular traffic to make it even safer.
Halloween in Downtown Hillsboro is an annual trick-or-treating event happening in the downtown district of Hillsboro. In 2025, it will be on Saturday, October 25th from 3:00-7:00 pm. Trunk or Treat on Main Street is back and Hillsboro Downtown Partnership has partnered with Downtown businesses, local schools, and more to provide spooky music, performances, people & pets costume contest, a haunted houses, and tons of candy along a very festive route.
