San Francisco’s spookiest afternoon of the season is almost here. On Saturday, October 24, Thrill-O-Ween transforms Thrive City, the outdoor plaza at Chase Center, into a Halloween wonderland packed with free family fun from noon to 5 PM.
Costume lovers, this is your moment: a costume contest crowns the best-dressed ghouls and goblins of the afternoon, so start planning your most creative look now. Little ones can hop between trick-or-treat stations, pick their favorite mini pumpkin, and make Halloween crafts at the arts & crafts corner while live entertainment keeps the plaza buzzing.
The big-screen highlight comes with a special screening of E.T., perfect for an autumn afternoon under the Mission Bay sky. Photo ops scattered around the plaza make sure every spooky memory gets captured.
Admission to the plaza is free and open to all ages, on a first-come, first-served basis. Food and drinks are available for purchase from the Thrive City restaurants and bars, so plan to stay for the whole afternoon.
