Halloween weekend is here, and there’s plenty happening close to home. We’ve rounded up five ideas for October 30–November 1, 2026, from a Fleetwood Mac tribute and Halloween fun to a community celebration and live theatre.

Weekend update: SnowFest in Simi Valley, scheduled for Sunday, November 1, has been canceled because of forecast rain. Our video was filmed before the cancellation. We’ve added Camarillo Old Town Boo Fest to the written guide below.
