TRAIL & TREAT - 2025

Trail and Treat returns to Greenway Park on Friday, Oct. 24, 2025 for a one-of-a-kind Halloween experience in Charlestown. The City of Charlestown has partnered with Indiana University Southeast's Fine Arts class to present a Wizardly-themed "Magic and Mischief" Trail and Treat through scenic Greenway Park! Talented artists have brought the Harry Potter-inspired characters and scenes from the fantasy books and films to life-size pieces of art! The Trail and Treat takes place from 5 to 7 p.m. at Greenway Park.

​

Join the trail at any spot in the park and walk the trail to visit the many booths. Concessions will be open.

The Penny Lane VW Photo Bus offers free commemorative photos from 5-7 p.m.

​

Community members, businesses, non-profits, and churches can help pass out candy at the event by setting up tables throughout the trail to distribute treats. Volunteers and vendors can register early by filling out an online form, or reach out to Parks Director Carrie Basham at 812-256-3422 ext. 6 or parks@cityofcharlestown.com to reserve a spot. If you'd like to donate candy, drop off contributions at City Hall during regular business hours.
