Trick-Or-Treating In Plainfield: 2026 Hours Revealed

PLAINFIELD, IL — The leaves are changing, and the air is crisper — that means Halloween is creeping in.

The spooky holiday falls on a Saturday this year, and the Village of Plainfield set its recommended trick-or-treating hours for 4-8 p.m. Oct. 31.

Families will have another opportunity to trick-or-treat and celebrate the fall at the annual Spooktacular, hosted Oct. 24 by the Plainfield Shorewood Area Chamber of Commerce. From 11 a.m. and 1 p.m., kids decked out in costumes can trick-or-treat at local businesses along Lockport Street in the downtown area.

The village shared the following guidelines ahead of the holiday:

• If you choose to hand out candy, please turn on your outside lights.
• If you do not wish to participate, please make sure your outside lights are turned off.
• Make sure that trick-or-treaters have a clear field of vision and wear light colors or put reflective tape on their costumes.
• Be careful when crossing streets and check both directions for cars.
• Do not enter any homes.
• Check all treats in a well-lit area after returning home and only eat unopened candy that is in the original packaging.
• Respect others and their property.
