Downtown Placerville Spooktacular – happens every year on October 31.
Whether it’s a goat in a hometown Fourth of July parade or a horse being led along a crosswalk on Main Street, “Only in Placerville…” is a common sentiment among people of the community.
The Downtown Placerville Spooktacular – happens every year on October 31 and transforms Main Street into a magical place of costumes and candy.
The Placerville Downtown Association, City of Placerville, Placerville Active 20/30 Club and Placerville Lion’s Club will come together to create a safe environment of fun and frivolity. More than 500 people will start the evening on Placerville’s historic Main Street with trick-or-treating from 4-6 p.m. (many stores will stay open late). Families with children ages 10 and under are invited to the children’s carnival at Town Hall from 4-6 p.m.; free games, prizes and treats will all be provided by the Placerville Lion’s Club.
Attendees will also enjoy family-friendly beats, as a DJ broadcasts live from the Bell Tower until 7 p.m. At 6:10 p.m., the costume contest begins around the Bell Tower. Remember, creativity counts! Placerville’s Active 20/30 Club will award prizes for the best costumes in all age groups: 3 and under, 4-6, 7-9, 10-13, 14-17 and adults. Grand prizes will be awarded for best overall costumes.
