Saratoga Spooktacular Drive-Thru Trick-Or-Treat Celebration at SPAC

SARATOGA SPRINGS — The Saratoga Spooktacular, a socially-distant alternative this Halloween with a drive-thru trick-or-treat celebration, will take place from 4 to 9 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 30 and Saturday, Oct. 31 on the grounds of Saratoga Performing Arts Center. 

The two-day, family-friendly event will invite families to don their Halloween costumes and travel the SPAC grounds by car while collecting individually-wrapped candy from numerous stations represented by local companies and organizations. Each station will feature festive Halloween décor and will deliver candy to trick-or-treaters in a socially-distanced manner. 

Reservations are required and will be available in 15-minute increments for $6 per vehicle (plus applicable fees). Each vehicle may contain up to six people. Reservations will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis at mazzonehospitality.com. Reservations will be capped at approximately 500 vehicles per evening.

Proceeds from the Saratoga Spooktacular will benefit SPAC, which was forced to suspend programming this summer due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) global health pandemic. 

The event is presented by Mazzone Hospitality. 

All attendees will be required to wear facial coverings and maintain proper social distancing. Safety recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention will be strictly followed and enforced, as will New York State guidelines for events and gatherings.
