The Town of Fountains Hills and over 40 local businesses, churches, and charities have come together to create the BEST FREE HALLOWEEN event in Arizona! Bring the entire family, including your four legged friends for a Halloween like no other!

Outside of carnival games, what Halloween event would be complete without costume contests? Sponsored by Sami Fine Jewelry and Steadfast Construction, Halloween in the Hills offers two great contests. The first contest is “Pets and Their People”. This contest is fun to watch. Every kind of animal you can imagine can be entered in the contest. From dogs, pigs, bunnies, and birds, this event is very entertaining! This year, the contest starts at 5:45pm (Registration is from 5:15pm-5:40pm and is located in the center of the Avenue near Chase Bank). Participation is completely FREE and prizes are sponsored by local businesses.

The other contest is “Best Kids Costume”. At 6:30pm (Registration is from 6pm-6:20pm) kids will strut their stuff across the stage, showing off their favorite Halloween Costumes. This contest is for youth under 18 years of age. From Minecraft characters to Disney princesses, you will see it all. Participation is FREE and prizes are sponsored by local businesses. If you are interested in participating or watching either of these Costume contests, they will be happening on the center of the Avenue (near Chase bank) on the main stage.

As well as the costume contests, other exciting things will also be happening in the stage area. From martial arts demos, games, and Halloween music, the center of the Avenue will be “jamming” Halloween style! Plus, there will also be a Fountain Hills Fire truck candy drop!

Additionally there will be lots of other free things to do. Join Charlotte… the friendly spider at Sonoran Lifestyle’s Spider Village. Venture into the Spider’s Laire to enjoy a fun filled haunted experience for young and old alike. The spider experience starts at 5:30pm.

Don’t just plan on eating candy, make sure you come hungry! Eat at the carnival and support your community. Sofrita’s, The All American Grill, Circle R Farm Food Truck, and The Fountain Hills Noon Kiwanis will be offering delicious food and drink for purchase. Waffle Luv and Cactus Corn are also a fun addition for desert food for purchase. Buy any food or drink from food at the carnival and a portion of all of the proceeds will be donated to local charity!

Come one, come all! This Halloween hit the streets of Fountain Hills for a Halloween event like no other!
