2021 Version Of 'Halloween Stroll' On Tap In West Hartford

WEST HARTFORD, CT — Costumed children of all ages are invited for a "fun morning" in West Hartford Center and Blue Back Square for the 2021 edition of the annual Halloween Stroll.

This year's event is slated for Oct. 23 from 10 a.m. to noon. The rain date is Oct. 24.

The free festivities are scheduled for a route along LaSalle Road, Farmington Avenue, South Main Street, Memorial Road and Isham Road.

Children can decide where and when to begin and are welcome to Trick-or-Treat at participating merchants. There will be live music, local sports team mascots, balloon artists, candy and more. At Blue Back Square, Gina J. and 96.5 TIC will be onsite hosting a trunk-or-treat event, games and giveaways. At 11 a.m., Dog Star will be on hand in the Raymond Road lot for a pet adoption.

The event traditionally draws thousands of people so participants are being urged to give themselves plenty of extra time to secure a parking spot. Parking is available at Town Hall, in the garages on Isham Road, Memorial Road and the Town Center building on South Main Street, as well as the municipal lots on Brace Road and LaSalle Road.

Parking fees will apply.

The event is sponsored by the Moms & More Club of West Hartford in collaboration with Blue Back Square and the town of West Hartford.

Participating retailers will have a sign on their door/kiosks. Candy will be available while supplies last.
