North Fulton Trunk-or-Treats: Alpharetta and Roswell
The north end of the county is where the biggest family events live, and the weekend before Halloween is packed: a family maze at North Point Mall all week, Avalon and Halcyon back to back on Saturday morning, Roswell's Halloween Fun House on Friday, and a community trunk-or-treat in Roswell on the Friday before the big night.
Trick-or-Treating at Avalon
Host: Avalon (Experience Avalon)
Free
Free family trick-or-treating at participating spots along the Boulevard. Start at Concierge, where Avalon hands out a map of every participating stop, then let the kids work their way down. It runs rain or shine, which makes it a dependable first stop of the day.
Official SourceHalloween at Halcyon
Host: Halcyon
Ticketed · benefits Bald Ridge Lodge
Trick-or-treating on the Green at more than 20 participating businesses, plus a DJ, character meet-and-greets, a pet and farm-animal experience, and Halloween cotton candy. This one is ticketed and families must register in advance, and the proceeds benefit Bald Ridge Lodge, so it is a party with a purpose.

Host: North Point Mall (Once Upon a Maze)
Bonus activity · not a candy event
A family-friendly enchanted fall maze with a scavenger hunt and a bracelet-making craft. One honest note: this is a bonus family activity, not a candy event, so do not send the kids expecting a candy haul. It is ticketed, so confirm prices and availability with the host before you go.
Official SourceHalloween Fun House
Host: City of Roswell Recreation and Parks
Free · kids 8 and under
A free City of Roswell event for kids 8 and under with a parent: face painting, magic shows, arts and crafts, inflatables, games, and safe trick-or-treating. No reservations are needed, which makes it an easy after-school stop a week before Halloween.

Official SourceCentral and Perimeter: Sandy Springs
Right on the Perimeter, Sandy Springs runs one of the best city-hosted warm-ups in the county, giving kids a chance to show off costumes a full week before Halloween.
Spooky Springs
Host: City of Sandy Springs
Free · city-hosted
A free, city-hosted Halloween warm-up with trick-or-treat candy stations, face painting, photo-op stations with a fog machine, music, and food trucks.

Official SourceSouth Fulton: Hapeville
At the south end of the county, Hapeville does something no other town on this list does: it publishes an official, town-wide trick-or-treat window for Halloween night, and it maps every decorated stop for families.

Official Trick-or-Treat Hours: The Honest Version
Here is the straightforward truth: most Fulton County towns do not set town-wide trick-or-treat hours. Families typically head out on Halloween night following their neighborhood or HOA window, and 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. is the most common. Hapeville is the exception, with its official 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. window published on the city's Community Trick-or-Treat Map page. Where a city does post official hours, this table is where they live, and where it does not, the rule is simple: check your neighborhood or HOA, and confirm with neighbors before you go.
| Town | Official hours on Oct 31 | Where to confirm |
|---|---|---|
| Hapeville | 6:00 to 8:00 p.m., official town-wide window | hapeville.org |
| Alpharetta | No town-wide hours posted | Check your neighborhood or HOA · Awesome Alpharetta |
| Roswell | No town-wide hours posted; convention runs dusk to about 8 p.m. | Check your neighborhood or HOA · roswellgov.com |
| Sandy Springs | No town-wide hours posted | Check your neighborhood or HOA · sandyspringsga.gov |
| Unincorporated Fulton County | No county-wide hours; check your neighborhood or HOA | fultoncountyga.gov |
The practical rule for Halloween night: start and end on the window your neighborhood or HOA publishes, keep an eye out for porches with lights on, and remember that 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. is the window most of Metro Atlanta follows.
Trunk-or-Treat Safety Tips for Fulton County Families
Eight quick reminders so everyone gets home safe, in my voice because I have walked these neighborhoods for two decades:
- 01 Reflective gear and glow sticks. A glow necklace or a strip of reflective tape makes a big difference once the sun is down.
- 02 Flashlights for everyone. Give the kids their own small light, not just the grown-ups.
- 03 Check candy before eating. Inspect wrappers for tears or tampering before anything gets opened, and pass on anything unwrapped unless you know the family.
- 04 Cross streets at corners. Look both ways, use crosswalks, and put the phones away at intersections.
- 05 Stay on well-lit sidewalks. Pick routes that are lit, and skip the houses hidden in the dark.
- 06 Adult supervision for young kids. Little ones walk with an adult, every street, start to finish.
- 07 Pets stay home. Crowds, costumes, and candy are stressful for most dogs, and chocolate is toxic to them, so give them a quiet night in.
- 08 Only visit homes with porch lights on. A dark porch means no candy, and it is a clear, polite boundary for the whole neighborhood.
One more: know your neighborhood's window before you step out the door, and plan the route around the hours your HOA or neighborhood posts. Short and sweet, that is how a great Halloween night starts.
Frequently Asked Questions
When is Halloween 2026?
Halloween 2026 is Saturday, October 31. The weekend before is when most of the city-hosted events in this guide happen: Avalon, Halcyon, and Spooky Springs are all Saturday, October 24, and Roswell's Halloween Fun House is Friday, October 23. Halloween night itself is when Hapeville runs its official 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. town-wide window.
What time does trick-or-treating start in Fulton County?
There is no county-wide start time. The most common neighborhood window on Halloween night is 6:00 to 8:00 p.m., and Hapeville is the one town that makes that official with its published 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. window. Everywhere else, check your neighborhood or HOA, because hours vary street to street.
Do Atlanta-area towns set official trick-or-treat hours?
Most do not. As of this writing, none of the Fulton towns in this guide except Hapeville had published town-wide hours for 2026; they leave door-to-door timing to neighborhoods and HOAs. In Roswell, the long-standing local convention runs from dusk until porch lights go off, often around 8 p.m. Where a city does post hours, follow the official page linked above, and confirm with the host when in doubt.
Are trunk-or-treat events free?
Most of the city-hosted events here are free: Avalon's trick-or-treating, Roswell's Halloween Fun House, and Sandy Springs' Spooky Springs all have free admission. Halcyon's Halloween at Halcyon is ticketed, with families registering in advance and ticket proceeds benefiting Bald Ridge Lodge, and the North Point Mall maze is a ticketed bonus activity rather than a candy event. Confirm pricing on each official page before you plan around it.
Is there a rain plan for the events?
It varies by host. Avalon's event runs rain or shine. Outdoor gatherings like Halcyon and Spooky Springs depend on the weather, while indoor events like the Halloween Fun House and the mall maze are safer bets in a shower. Check the official event page the day of, and confirm with the host if the forecast looks wet.
What is a trunk-or-treat?
A trunk-or-treat gathers decorated cars in a parking lot or on a green, and families walk from trunk to trunk collecting candy. It is a safe, contained alternative to door-to-door trick-or-treating, and it is how most of the city events in this guide work, with hosts, neighbors, and local businesses handing out treats from their decorated vehicles.
