Downtown Decatur has trick-or-treat stops all week, not just on Halloween

Visit Decatur’s official Halloween page confirms Trick or Treat Week from October 25 through 31. Participating downtown businesses will display Trick or Treat Stop signs in their windows, making this a flexible after-school option instead of a single crowded event.

The Visitor Center at 113 Clairemont Avenue is itself a listed stop. Decatur also provides a map and a separate Scream on the Square event on Friday October 30, with activities beginning at 5 p.m. and a movie at 7 p.m.

What to do: open the official map, choose a short walking loop and let the kids wear costumes on a convenient weekday. Check each store’s business hours; the weeklong date range does not mean every storefront is open until late.
