Event Overview
Delight in Halloween Village
Celebrate the magic of fall in the heart of Milwaukee with the return of Halloween Village at Baird Community Commons (400 W. Wisconsin Avenue). Guests can walk through a larger-than-life pumpkin and giant spider, enjoy interactive lighting displays featuring classic Halloween characters like a ghost, Frankenstein, a scarecrow, and witches, and capture memories with brand-new seasonal photo ops. Plus, new this year, check out the new Pumpkin Hut featuring jack-o’-lanterns created by Milwaukee Night Market attendees.
This event is free and open to the public. Whether you’re stopping by during the day or enjoying the magical lights in the evening, Halloween Village offers a fun and festive outing for all ages.
