2025 Dearborn Halloween events and fall festivities

Published Sept. 29, 2025

Embrace the spooky season with a variety of family-friendly Halloween events, activities, and fall festivities hosted by and in partnership with the City of Dearborn. From Dearborn’s Haunted Trail experience at Ford Field Park, Halloween Weekends at Camp Dearborn in Milford, the Downtown Dearborn Fall Bazaar, and more, autumnal enthusiasts will find much to enjoy in Dearborn this fall.  

Dearborn Haunted Trail 
Now in its fourth year, the Dearborn Haunted Trail, presented by Ford Community Relations, will return to Ford Field Park, 22051 Cherry Hill Rd, from Friday, Oct. 17, through Sunday, Oct. 19, 2025. Patrons can enjoy nightly frights from 7 to 10 p.m. each day. 

In addition to a thrilling trail experience, the event will feature a Treat Tent, food trucks, a fire pit lounge, and a live DJ.

New in 2025, the Dearborn Haunted Trail will offer a “Witching Hour” experience for guests 18 years of age or older. Sponsored by Mustang Fence, an extra hour of intensified haunts will take place nightly on Friday, Oct. 17, and Saturday, Oct. 18, beginning at 10 p.m. 

Those who prefer treats over tricks can enjoy a family and sensory-friendly experience on the trail on Friday, Oct. 17, from 6 to 7 p.m. Tickets are not required for this special hour.

Also held on Oct. 17 is the Dearborn Haunted Trail’s "Trunk or Treat" experience. Treat bags are available from 6 to 8 p.m. on a first-come, first-served basis, for children to fill with goodies from City of Dearborn departments and local Dearborn businesses. This portion of the event is open to the public.

Tickets for the Dearborn Haunted Trail may be purchased online at bit.ly/DearbornHauntedTrail for $10 up to the day of the event. Visitors can also purchase tickets at the event for $15. 

A 24-hour flash sale will run on Wednesday, Oct. 1, with the opportunity to purchase tickets at a 50% discount.  

Halloween Weekends at Camp Dearborn 
The City’s expansive retreat and campground in Milford, Mich., will host Halloween Weekends every weekend in October through Sunday, Oct. 26. Beginning Friday, Oct. 3, families are invited to join the seasonal fun and activities at Camp Dearborn,  1700 General Motors Rd.
