Happy Halloween

The Chicago Park District is excited to join the City of Chicago in celebrating ‘Halloweek!’

Mayor Lori E. Lightfoot and the Chicago Department of Public Health (CDPH) recently announced a plan to celebrate Halloween safely in Chicago that emphasizes social distancing and other safety precautions, while allowing trick-or-treating and other fun activities throughout the week.

As the Chicago Park District plans to offer spook-tacular virtual and in-person events, we want to ensure we all celebrate Halloween safely.

Please keep in mind the following while visiting our parks:

Practice social distancing
Face coverings are required at all times
Wash hands or use hand sanitizer frequently
Minimize congregation and Keep It Moving
Please stay home if you are experiencing cold or flu-like symptoms, have a fever, or have been recently exposed to someone with COVID-19

For more guidelines on celebrating 'Halloweek' safely, please visit ChicagoHalloweek.org. The City’s guidelines will allow for a responsible celebration spread out over a full week.

While Halloween looks a little different this year, we want everyone to have fun! Protecting our guests and staff is our top priority. We want to thank everyone in advance for your cooperation.
