Each year the City of Detroit celebrates Halloween in the D. This family-friendly celebration includes a host of Halloween activities at police precincts, recreation centers and fire stations. Over 30,000 Detroit youth and their families take part in activities with over 1million pieces of candy distributed. We also recognize the contributions of residents that serve year-round as volunteers with their block clubs, community organizations and area radio patrols in each City Council district.

Halloween in the D – Thank You for an Incredible 2025 Celebration!

From the Thriller Flash Mob that kicked off the excitement to our citywide Trunk-or-Treat locations, this year’s Halloween in the D brought thousands of Detroit families together for safe, fun, and memorable holiday experiences.

Thanks to the support of our partners, sponsors, and the amazing volunteers, we were able to host events across neighborhoods, parks, rec centers, and city facilities—ensuring Detroit kids had a joyful and safe Halloween.

  • Citywide Trunk-or-Treats serving families across all districts

  • Partnered with local dance program and youth program for an epic Thriller Flash Mob & themed entertainment

  • Free candy and activities for youth
