Find Out When Kids Can Collect Candy In The Palos Area This Saturday

PALOS, IL—Given the large turnout during this week’s trunk-or-treat events, there's going to be a lot of holes in little ghosts’ and goblins’ teeth when it’s time to hit the streets for trick-or-treating on Halloween, which this year falls on Saturday, Oct. 31.

The last time Halloween fell on a Saturday was 2020, and it won’t happen again until 2037, which means that some communities have packed on extra hours for trick or treating.

Hours for going door to door on Saturday in Palos Heights are 2 to 7 p.m., and 3 to 7:30 p.m. in Palos Hills.

Palos Park counts on the common sense of residents for when to call it a day, which to a fourth-grader could mean 10 o'clock at night. Parents should consider going out with younger children after sunset, which will set at approximately 5:45 p.m. Saturday.

If you’re going to your cousin’s house or to a neighborhood where they’re giving out full-size candy bars, here are trick-or-treat hours for nearby towns on Oct. 31:

• Alsip, 3 to 7 p.m.
