Halloween 2026 is on Saturday, Oct. 31. The following is important information for all the trick or treaters.
Pennsauken
Kids throughout town are getting their costumes ready for Halloween and planning a route to get the most candy! Trick or Treating in Pennsauken will occur from 2:00 to 8:00 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 31, rain or shine.
To help keep our young ghosts and goblins safe while they enjoy Halloween fun, Pennsauken Township will have a curfew in effect through Saturday, Oct. 31. On these evenings, children under 16 should head home by 8:00 p.m. unless they’re accompanied by a parent, legal guardian, or another trusted adult (age 18 or older) who has permission to supervise them.
During Trick or Treating on Halloween, Pennsauken asks that drivers use caution and be aware of the increased amount of pedestrian traffic. Pennsauken Police will be patrolling the streets to ensure the safety of residents and visitors to our community.
We hope that everyone who celebrates Halloween has a safe time with plenty of spooky fun!
