There’s something extra magical about Ocean City in October — the air is crisp, the crowds are gone, and the town is full of cozy, small-town charm. Halloween weekend is the perfect time to escape to the shore for a little spooky fun, seaside relaxation, and a whole lot of Shore style.
Halloween Fun in Ocean City
Ocean City loves to celebrate Halloween! Whether you’re bringing the kids, a group of friends, or planning a couples’ getaway, there’s something festive for everyone.- Halloween Parade on Asbury Avenue
A true Ocean City tradition! Costumed kids, floats, and local fun fill Asbury Avenue with music and energy — a must-see if you’re in town for the holiday. The 2025 Ocean City Halloween Parade is on Thursday, October 30, 2025 at 7:15pm along Asbury Avenue from 6th to 11th Street
- Trick-or-Treating Around Town
Ocean City neighborhoods and shops go all out for Halloween night. It’s a safe, family-friendly way to celebrate with that classic small-town feel. - Haunted Golf on the Boardwalk
Take a swing at spooky mini golf — complete with eerie effects, fun scares, and ocean breezes. A perfect evening activity before grabbing dessert on the boardwalk. - Fall Beach Walks & Cozy Evenings In
When the festivities wind down, relax with a beach walk, enjoy the quiet boardwalk, or cozy up in your beach house with a pumpkin spice latte and a blanket.

Fall is one of the most beautiful and peaceful times to visit Ocean City. The beaches are open and uncrowded, the sunsets are stunning, and there’s still plenty to do without the summer hustle.- Fewer crowds, more relaxation
Enjoy the best parts of Ocean City — the views, the food, the boardwalk — without the summer rush. - Mild weather for outdoor fun
Perfect for walking, biking, or exploring downtown in your favorite fall sweater. - Local favorites still open
