Paisley Halloween Festival

Friday 25 - Saturday 26 October, 2024

And that’s a wrap on Paisley Halloween Festival 2024!

The Festival celebrated it’s milestone 10th anniversary in style on Friday 25 and Saturday 26 October, when thousands of visitors gathered in the town to enjoy the triumphant return of the spectacular parade.

The 300-strong parade was the centrepiece of the celebrations as professional performers and community groups wound their way through Paisley town centre, delighting crowds along the route.

A number of exciting event changes were made to the 2024 Festival, including extending the parade route to take in Mill Street and relocating the Funfair to the Lagoon car park and East End Park.

Paisley has become synonymous with Halloween in recent years with the 2024 event confirming the town’s status as the ‘home of Halloween’ for another year; successfully entertaining children and adults alike.

We’d like to take this opportunity to say thank you to everyone who supported this year’s event. That includes the visitors who attended on Friday and Saturday, but also the performers, community groups, partners, local businesses, volunteers and staff who all contributed too. We hope you all enjoyed the Festival as much as we did and we’ll see you again next time!
