Halloween activities in Logan 2024
UPDATE: With Halloween done and dusted for 2024, save this page and visit next year for more spooky shenanigans in 2025.
There’s nothing quite as spooky spectacular as Halloween in the City of Logan. These Halloween events bring in locals and visitors from Brisbane and beyond, so put on your best costumes and get the little goblins, ghouls and fairies ready for trick or treating, face painting, magical Halloween displays and more.
If you’re in for a real scare, don’t miss the terrifying maze that’s about to open as the season’s monsters descend upon the city.
For those who aren’t keen on Halloween, there are also alternative events that are just as fun without the scare, along with suggestions if you want to spend Halloween at home.
