Floyd County, IN – A Halloween celebration planned for Sunday at Community Park in New Albany has been cancelled due to ongoing rain and inclement weather, according to the Floyd County Sheriff’s Office.
In a post shared just minutes ago, the department confirmed the decision, citing safety concerns and wet conditions. “We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding. Stay safe and dry,” the statement read.
The event was expected to draw families from across Floyd County for trick-or-treating and seasonal activities. However, with rain moving steadily through southern Indiana, local officials opted to cancel rather than risk unsafe or uncomfortable conditions for attendees.
No rescheduled date has been announced as of Sunday afternoon. Residents are encouraged to monitor the Floyd County Sheriff’s Office social media pages for updates in case of future community events or weather advisories.
Wet weather is expected to continue across the Louisville metro and southern Indiana through the evening, potentially impacting other outdoor plans.
