Spooky season is upon us! So come trick-or-treat at Ottawa City Hall… if you dare!
Witches and reapers guard the entrance to the Heritage Building, where inside fairy tales and futuristic scenes collide. Outside, enjoy the glowing pumpkin patch where costumed characters from worlds both heroic and enchanted await you. Be sure to keep your eyes open, for around every turn, the impossible is ready to come to life and a new adventure awaits.
Whether you seek sweet surprises or spooky sights, this is a frightfully fun night for the whole family that you won’t want to miss.
The City of Ottawa is proud to partner with Treat Accessibly to help make trick-or-treating accessible and inclusive for everyone.
Admission is free. Donations of non-perishable food items, baby supplies or cash to the Ottawa Food Bank’s Baby Basics Program are encouraged.
The Baby Basics Program helps parents in need by providing high-demand items such as formula, baby food and diapers. Chronic shortages of these necessities make stocking baby supplies one of the Food Bank’s most expensive yet most important priorities.
