Grand Rapids Trick or Treating Times – 2024
Trick-or-treating is the most quintessential of Halloween activities and fall fun.
Halloween 2024 is on a THURSDAY.
This should make trick-or-treating pretty straight-forward this year as most places will be trick-or-treating on October 31.
If you’re wondering whether or not your West Michigan neighborhood will host trick or treating times on Thursday, we’ve got the scoop.
We called area municipalities to find out when their local ghouls and gremlins would be out and about, and what the trick or treating 2024 times are this year.
Halloween Trick or Treating 2024 Times for Greater Grand Rapids
Find your community’s trick-or-treating times in a box below. They’re organized alphabetically.
Many municipalities do not have official trick or treat dates or times, and leave it to neighborhoods to decide their own schedules.
Others declare dates and suggested times so all citizens can have that candy ready!
If a box says “unconfirmed” then we were not able to gather updated trick or treat hours at of time of publication. We will update this post as information comes in.

Clever Halloween Costume Ideas for Trick-or-Treating
This section contains affiliate links
Halloween in Michigan is special. It’s tricky to find costumes that are fun, yet warm enough to withstand whatever October 31 throws at us.
Here are several costume ideas we think will help you and your kids trick-or-treat, stay warm, and have the best Halloween. Just be sure to shop early – Halloween will be here before you know it!
Inflatable Dinosaur Costume for Adults
You won’t win any land speed awards wearing this, but you will stay warm and get a lot of laughs.
Best for teens or parents who don’t need to assist little kids with all of the things.
Ghostbuster Family Costume
Put mom or dad in a Staypuft Marshmallow costume and dress the kids up as Ghostbusters for an epic costume that will be warm and very entertaining.
Halloween Ponchos for Mom FTW
Finally, a costume that is cute, that lets you wear leggings, and takes all of a second to put on. Ponchos are winners and they come in lots of styles.
Pair it with a funky headband or other Halloween accessories and you’re ready to hand out candy or walk the kids from house to house.

Can we add Hastings to this list? Each year a fun community event on our historic Green Street and plenty of businesses and churches with either haunted houses or trunk or treats to visit.

Hi, Sally,
The City of Wyoming consistently tells us that they do not designate a day or times. Neighborhoods can do it whenever they want.
I recommend asking your neighbors what they’re planning. I’m trying to determine this myself!
If we hear anything official, we’ll update this post accordingly.
