BATON ROUGE TRICK-OR-TREATING TIMES | TRUNK-OR-TREAT

October 20, 2019 by Baton Rouge Moms

Baton Rouge has many Halloween events for family-friendly fun leading up to the big night.  Oct. 31st is just around the corner. One thing parents need to be aware of, especially parents who are new to Baton Rouge or new to having kids trick-or-treating, is that most areas have specific trick-or-treat hours.  And in many communities, they only get two “official” hours to trick or treat. 

Aside from the Baton Rouge area annual neighborhood trick-or-treating fun, there are many other trick-or-treat events happening around town. To help you make the most of this spooktacular season, we’ve provided a roundup of family-friendly Halloween events! We also have a Kids Eat Free on Halloween list here.

Enjoy this Halloween with your family and friends, Baton Rouge!

While every effort has been made to ensure this information is accurate, we encourage you to verify that all details are correct and have not changed. If you have information on a Trunk-or-Treat that we missed, please let us know!

Baton Rouge LawyerBaton Rouge Moms will always bring you the best in Family Friendly events in Baton Rouge and beyond. We have gathered the latest list of Family Friendly events for fall festivities, thanks to our sponsor, Smith Shanklin Sosa!
