(Opelousas, LA) — The City of Opelousas invites families to enjoy a safe and spirited Halloween celebration at the annual Trick or Treat Trail, happening Saturday, October 25, from 4 PM to 6 PM at South City Park. Hosted by Opelousas Tourism and Opelousas Parks & Recreation, this free community event offers a festive alternative to traditional door-to-door trick-or-treating. Children are encouraged to come in costume and stroll the trail, collecting candy and enjoying Halloween-themed fun in a secure, family-friendly environment.
Dozens of local businesses and organizations will set up along the walking trail at the park and offer treats, goodies and activities to kids. Other activities planned include train rides, a petting zoo, photo opportunities and monster mash music. Participation is free for businesses and organizations, with only one requirement: hand out treats to the young trail-goers. The event is designed for kids ages 12 and under.
Mayor Julius Alsandor and the Opelousas City Council remain committed to creating family-oriented events that bring residents together and celebrate community spirit. The Trick or Treat Trail is made possible thanks to the generous support of local businesses and civic groups.
To sign up for the trail, please submit your sign-up form by Monday, October 20, 2025. For more information, email info@cityofopelousas.com or call 337-948-6263.
