Halloween festivities in Princeton are set for a lively evening across several locations on Saturday, October 4th. Celebrations kick off at Soldiers and Sailors Park, stretching onto Main Street and the Bureau County Fairgrounds. Families can enjoy a farmers market, spirited costume contest, and a colorful parade—participants are asked to gather at the park by 5 PM. For those seeking treats and thrills, trick-or-treating, hayrack rides, pony rides, food trucks, and a haunted attraction await. Although the hot air balloons for the Monster Mash Balloon Bash have been cancelled due to the forecasted high winds, organizers will ensure refunds for pre-purchased tethered rides. Festivities will continue throughout the day, promising memorable Halloween fun for the entire community.
