Trick or Treat on Main Street in Bel Air for Halloween

BEL AIR, MD — Downtown Bel Air will be teeming with costumed characters in search of candy on Saturday, Oct. 29. That is the day that the Bel Air Downtown Alliance will host the community for trick or treating on Main Street.

To let trick or treaters know they are participating in the festivities, businesses that welcome those in Halloween garb will have pumpkin cut-outs outside their stores.

Trick or treaters can take whatever route they would like to take through town.

Parents should accompany children, town officials advise.

Families are encouraged to dine and shop downtown while trick or treating, with special offers extended for the event. Those who make a purchase at select retailers during the Main Street trick or treat may receive coupons for 10 percent off at Looney's, MaGerk's and the Vagabond Sandwich Company.

The whole family is invited to get in on the Halloween spirit in downtown Bel Air — there will be an Instagram dog costume contest for those whose pooches like to get dressed up too, sponsored by To Wag For on Main Street.

Trick or treating on Main Street in Bel Air will take place from noon to 2 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 29.
