Halloween Monster Bash
|
Mummies and deadies, boos and ghouls! Creep over to Newport for tricks, treats, games and activities for the whole family! Each year, Newport Parks & Recreation and a group of local organizations combine powers to host an Annual Monster Bash party on the Saturday before Halloween.
Costume Contest
Honorary Monster Bash judges will be wandering Main Street looking for the cutest, creepiest, most creative and best group costume at the event. Finalists will be invited to a goulish fashion at 2:00PM in the Municipal Gym for a chance to win top honor for the year! 
Trick-or-Treating & Wagon Rides
A group of Monster Merchants on Main Street are excited to haunt with all the ghosts, ghouls and goblins scaring about town for the Monster Bash! During event hours from 1:00-3:00PM, visit any merchant with a "Trick-or-Treat" sign in the window for something sweet, a game or even a Halloween craft! Help support this event by donating to the Halloween Candy Drop. Hay wagon rides pick-up periodically at the Municipal Building parking lot for free loops around the waterfront during the event. 
Touch-a-Truck
Say hello to Newport firefighters, police officers and emergency personnel as they give an up close and personal look at the City's big trucks and vehicles. Staff will be on hand to greet families and hand out treats in the Municipal parking lot during the Monster Bash from 1:00-3:00PM 
Trunk-or-Treat
Northeast Kingdom Car Club is based out of Newport and geared toward the younger generation of car enthusiast. Each year they organize local meets and race events at tracks all over New England.
