Aurora, IL – The Aurora Police Department is reminding residents to stay alert and celebrate safely as families take to the streets for Halloween festivities this evening.
According to police, trick-or-treating hours in Aurora run from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., giving children and families plenty of time to enjoy the evening while staying visible and cautious. Officers recommend using glow sticks or flashlights, sticking to well-lit streets, and only visiting homes with porch lights on.
Drivers are urged to slow down and remain alert, as excited trick-or-treaters can be difficult to see after dark. Police also advise parents to ensure costumes fit properly and don’t block vision or movement.
Families looking to start early can attend the City’s Trick-or-Treat event at Wilder Park from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. at 350 N. River Street, featuring treats, dancing, giveaways, and costume fun for all ages.
