North Vancouver

From haunted hikes to pumpkin patches, discover the best Halloween events around North Vancouver this fall.

When the air gets crisp, the leaves turn gold, and store shelves fill with candy corn, you know Halloween is right around the corner. North Vancouver might not be known for its haunted castles, but it has plenty of spooky fun — plus cozy fall activities for those who prefer pumpkins over poltergeists.

Here are seven ways to celebrate Halloween season in and around North Vancouver this year.

1. Visit the Pumpkin Patch at Maplewood Farm

Maplewood Farm goes full autumn in October, with pumpkins, hay bales, and plenty of adorable goats to make your Instagram feed happy. Great for kids (and kids-at-heart).

2. Take a Haunted Hike in Lynn Canyon

If you’re up for a thrill, head to Lynn Canyon at dusk. The creaky suspension bridge, the whisper of the wind through the trees — it’s the perfect setting for swapping ghost stories. Bring a flashlight and a friend.

3. Wander the Lonsdale Quay Halloween Market

Local vendors, live music, and stalls decked out with spooky décor. Pick up themed treats, handmade crafts, or the last piece for your costume.

4. Carve Pumpkins at Home Grown Produce

This North Van favourite often hosts pumpkin carving events in October. All you need to bring is your creativity — they’ll supply the pumpkin and tools.

5. Join the Shipyards Spooktacular

The Shipyards District comes alive with costumes, live entertainment, food trucks, and family-friendly activities. Bonus: the waterfront at night makes for magical Halloween photos.

6. Take a Ghost Walk Tour in Gastown

Okay, technically this one’s across the bridge, but it’s worth it. Guided tours share Vancouver’s darker history, complete with tales of hauntings and notorious crimes.

7. Host a Halloween Movie Night with Local Brews

Grab a growler from Bridge Brewing or Beere Brewing Co., throw on Hocus Pocus or a classic horror flick, and settle in for a cozy night.
