Halloween 2021: Glenview Releases Trick-Or-Treating Hours

The Village is encouraging residents to post a sign in their windows to indicate if they're participating in giving out candy.

GLENVIEW, IL — While not every household will participate in trick-or-treating on Halloween, the Village of Glenview has released hours to hand out candy. The Village is asking residents to limit trick-or-treating to 3-7 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 31.

Village officials remind residents to keep these tips in mind if your kids haunt the neighborhood:

  • Accompany children (or send an older sibling) and make sure they don't enter anyone's home without your permission.
  • Map out a trick-or-treat route for your children to follow.
  • Make sure kids cross only at corners — and look in all directions first. Remind them to use sidewalks or walk facing traffic so approaching cars can be seen.
  • Caution them against crossing the street between parked cars, where drivers can't see them.
  • Warn children not to eat any goodies until you've had a chance to inspect them. When in doubt, throw it out.
  • Be sure to practice social distancing when possible and follow CDC and local guidelines relating to COVID-19.

Residents can make known whether they do or don't welcome trick-or-treaters by posting a sign in their window, available to print out on the Village website.
