Halloween Fancy Dress Street Meet

Halloween at the end of October is another chance for neighbours to get together in their street. You don't have to close the street either; it can be a Street Meet anywhere in the street.

Whether or not you want to support children doing the full trick-or-treat door to door, dressing up in 'scary' outfits and parading can be fun. This does not have to be just for kids - adults can take the chance to wander around and socialise with neighbours in the street in fancy dress too.

Some streets dress their doorways with lit pumpkins or colourful lights which brighten up the street.

Other ideas include having pumpkin soup, mulled wine or cider together and group dancing to Michael Jackson's Thriller, all dressed in masks.

Happy Halloween!
