Here’s a list of major Halloween-related events in the Madison, WI area.
While the City of Madison ended Freakfast permanently in 2023, many people still visited State Street, and you can expect a crowd again this year.
Also keep in mind that many bars, such as the Essen Haus and Starkweather Brewing, will have their own parties and costume contests.
If you’re looking for a Halloween costume, I’ve typically found what I needed at HalloweenCostumes.com and Spirit Halloween.
For the second year in a row, a few more annual Oktoberfest events in the area bit the dust, as Verona’s Hometown Brewdown (now folded into another event) and Sun Prairie’s Fall Beer Taste aren’t returning.
