Halloween Weekend in Chattanooga 👻
|
|
Halloween lands on a Saturday this year, and Chattanooga did not hold back. There is so much going on that we can't pick one Big One this week. Every event below earns its spot.
|
|
Friday has comedy, bluegrass and charity boxing. Saturday brings the River Market and UTC Mocs football. Sunday, the Tennessee Vols play a fall exhibition at Erlanger Park, the Lookouts' brand-new ballpark. And every Halloween event is gathered at the bottom, from Dread Hollow to costume parties.
|
|
Don't Forget! Clocks fall back Sunday at 2 a.m., so you get an extra hour. It's a lot. Pick your spots. 👇
|
|
Please check each event's official link for the latest dates, hours, and ticket availability before you go. Several of these sell out.
