Seaside’s Halloween theme this year is “SEASIDE® is the Golden Ticket.” The town says it will turn into a candy-colored wonderland, with a trail of sweet surprises, treats and characters around every corner. It runs in the early evening, from 4 to 7 p.m., which works well for younger trick-or-treaters.
If you’re staying nearby in WaterColor, Seagrove or Grayton, walking or biking in saves you from hunting for parking. Our 30A day-trip logistics guide covers parking and park-and-ride options.
Before you make the drive: we confirmed this listing on Seaside’s events calendar on October 16, 2026, a week after Hurricane Isaias came ashore near Destin. Some South Walton amenities and beach accesses are still being repaired, so confirm with the organizer before you go.
