Step into a world of Halloween magic at BooFest, Downtown Belmont’s beloved family-friendly festival where thrills, chills, and delightful surprises await.
This enchanting day transforms the streets and park into a spooktacular playground filled with carnival rides, performances from local organizations, artisan vendors, and delicious food trucks. Kids can show off their creativity in the costume contest, enjoy free activities like face painting and balloon twisting, and collect plenty of candy as they explore a festive, fun-filled atmosphere.

With thousands of attendees and over a hundred little ghouls competing in the costume contest last year, BooFest has become a must-visit autumn tradition for families looking to celebrate the Halloween season in style.
