Marlborough Horribles Parade Returns In 2021

The Horribles Parade and trick-or-treating along Main Street will be held on Oct. 28 this year.

MARLBOROUGH, MA — The Marlborough Horribles Parade is back from the dead.

The city's annual downtown Halloween celebration will take pace on Oct. 28 along with a trick-or-treating event at businesses along Main Street. The event was canceled in 2020 due to the pandemic.

The evening event begins at 4:30 p.m. with trick-or-treating, plus a visit from the Juniper Farms ice cream truck. At 5:30, the Marlborough High School march band and members of the Whitcomb band will march down Main Street.
