🎃 When is Halloween in the UK in 2025?

Halloween will be celebrated in the UK on Friday, 31st October 2025, the perfect start to a weekend of spooky fun! Though its origins lie in ancient Celtic traditions like Samhain, Halloween has evolved into a playful, creative, and increasingly popular celebration across Britain.

👻 Halloween Traditions in the UK

Trick-or-Treating

Trick-or-treating continues to grow in popularity across UK neighbourhoods. Children don costumes — from magical fairies to creepy creatures — and go door to door collecting sweets and showing off their Halloween style.

🎭 Looking for a costume? We’ve got spooky, silly, and show-stopping looks for all ages.

Haunted House Decor

Halloween isn’t complete without a bit of home horror. From glowing pumpkins and cobwebbed porches to flickering lights and skeletons in the window, Brits are getting bolder each year with their DIY haunted house setups.

Halloween Parties

Whether you’re hosting at home or heading to a themed night out, Halloween parties are more popular than ever. From kids’ parties to grown-up murder mysteries, costumes, music, themed food, and games are what make the night memorable.

🕸️ How to Prepare for Halloween 2025

🎭 Plan Your Costume Early

Last-minute shopping can mean limited sizes and sold-out styles. Planning ahead ensures you get your ideal Halloween costume—whether you’re a villain, hero, monster, or meme. Couples, families, and group costumes are always a crowd-pleaser!

🍬 Themed Treats & Decor

Spooky food makes the party. From jelly eyeballs to “witch’s finger” biscuits, Halloween snacks are easy to create and fun to eat. Add fog machines, orange lights, or fake tombstones to set the scene.

🎲 Fun & Games

Boost the fun with costume contests, pumpkin carving, scavenger hunts, or interactive murder mystery games. Keep guests of all ages entertained and in the spirit.
