Get ready to show off your spookiest and most creative costumes at the Los Gatos Farmers' Market's Halloween costume parade! This fun event will take place on Sunday, Oct. 27, at the market located at Main Street and Santa Cruz Avenue. The parade will kick off at 10:30 a.m. but make sure to arrive early as the market will be open from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. There will be plenty of activities for everyone, including pumpkin decorating and a chance to guess the weight of a giant pumpkin for a chance to win $50.

But the Halloween festivities don't stop there. Join Olga Enciso Smith, founder of Machu Pichu Gallery of the Americas in San Jose, and her son Brian Smith as they honor the tradition of Día de los Muertos with a special dedication. On Thursday, Oct. 31 at 5:30 p.m., they will be unveiling an ofrenda (altar) that they have created. If you would like to honor a loved one, bring a photo to the dedication at 157 Holly Way in Los Gatos. Don't forget to include a self-addressed, stamped envelope so that your photo can be returned to you.
And for the little ones and furry friends, don't miss out on the Kid and Pet Pawlooza on Sunday, Oct. 27. Join in on the fun as you trick-or-treat with vendors in downtown Los Gatos and take part in a "pawrade." This event is also a fundraiser for the Street Dog Coalition, an organization that provides free veterinary care for pets belonging to unhoused individuals. The festivities will begin at 2:30 p.m. at Town Plaza Park, so make sure to dress up your pets and kids in their best costumes. Prizes will be awarded for the best costume, so don't miss out!
