Event Date:  October 18, 2024 - 5:00pm Nevada State Museum Last year’s Halloween Block Party was so much fun that the Children’s Museum of Northern Nevada and the Nevada State Museum have decided to do it again this year! The community is invited to share in the excitement on Friday, October 18, 2024 from 5-8 p.m. in downtown Carson City. Free trunk-or-treating has expanded to both museums this year. Vehicle entries will go all out to compete in the car decorating contest, while handing out candy to visitors from 5-7 p.m. along Ann Street next to the Children’s Museum of Northern Nevada, 813 N. Carson Street, and in the north parking lot of the Nevada State Museum, 600 N. Carson Street. CandyBurger and The Lady Griller food trucks will also be on site to satisfy monster appetites. Inside the Children’s Museum, the Monster Bash Dance is fun for the whole family! Entry into the dance is $5 per person. Meanwhile, the Nevada State Museum offers free admission to its haunted ghost town and mine as well as the Spooky Critters Curator’s Corner in the Dema Guinn Concourse. The Halloween Museum Block Party is a family-friendly event. Visitors are asked to wear their coolest non-scary Halloween costumes. Come on out and enjoy the party!
