Village Of Oak Brook: Halloween Trick Or Treat Hours

Press release from the Village of Oak Brook:

September 27, 2021

Halloween Trick or Treat Hours on Sunday, October 31, 2021 will be from 2:00 pm until 7:00 pm.  The Village of Oak Brook believes that parents are the best judges of their children’s participation in Halloween activities. In the current COVID-19 environment, the Village is taking the position that parents need to make the decision as to whether or not their children engage in Halloween activities. For parents' reference, the CDC recently released information on low, medium and high-risk Halloween activities, including ideas for at-home, virtual and physically distanced alternatives. It is the Village’s hope that residents have the opportunity to celebrate Halloween in a way that they are comfortable with while continuing to exercise the safety protocols.

If you choose to Trick-or-Treat or hand out candy, we ask that you please follow these safety guidelines:

For residents who do not wish to participate in Trick-or-Treating this year, the Village has a sign that you can download here and print to place on your front door to notify potential Trick-or-Treaters. For further questions, please contact the Village of Oak Brook at 630-368-5026

Please note that, while these serve as our current guidelines to parents regarding Halloween, the State may restrict participation in Halloween activities through guidelines issued by the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH). If the State issues guidelines that conflict with ours, we will communicate that information through the Village’s social media platforms.

The 2021 Village of Oak Brook Halloween Event Flyer is available here.
