El Paso’s Halloween Block Party You Can’t Miss

The city of El Paso LOVES a good celebration, especially during the spooky season! This Halloween downtown El Paso is going to turn into a Frightful sight full of music and fun because the first-ever Fright Fest is happening in Downtown El Paso.

This isn’t your average Halloween bash. We’re talking free trick-or-treating in the park, local vendors and food trucks serving up spooky snacks and more, plus live music all night, and a costume contest that could win you bragging rights and a crown from 10–10:30PM. Oh, and when the moon’s high and the ghosts are out? DJ Johnny Kage is taking over for the official afterparty.
