Manatee County, Florida – Despite challenging weather conditions in recent weeks, officials in Manatee County are set to host their annual Halloween celebration. The 22nd edition of the Goblin Gathering is scheduled for October 25, 2024, from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the wooded area of G.T. Bray Park. The event was initially planned for earlier in the month but was postponed due to Hurricane Milton.

Local businesses and community partners will distribute “treats & sweets,” offering families a safe trick-or-treating option. Organizers report that crews have successfully cleared the area of debris, and popular attractions like bounce houses, face painting, a petting zoo, a magician, and an abundance of free candy will all be part of the rescheduled festivities.

– 1 year and under
– 2 to 4 years old
– 5 to 8 years old
– 9 and older
– Families
