Month-Long Scarecrow Contest & Trick or Treating on Halloween
Daily, Oct 1st-Oct 31st
Autumn in Chimney Rock Village is a time of traditions as families with young children and couples return to our bustling Main Street and Riverwalk Trail to take in the splendor of the season. Merchants show off their creativity all month long by decorating scarecrows in front of their businesses. B&Bs, Inns, and vacation rental cabins decorate too, and the outdoor cafes are brimming with activity.
The monthlong celebration of Fall culminates with our annual Trick or Treat on Main St., on Halloween evening from 5 pm to 7 pm.
Winners of the Scarecrow contest will be announced at the Halloween Costume & Karaoke Party at Broad River Cocktail Lounge.
Several restaurants, shops, and bars will likely be open later on Halloween evening as well! So, dress up the whole family and head down to Main St to score your best treats.
