Faces of Boulder: A Spooktacular Munchkin Masquerade on Pearl Street
Every Halloween, Boulder’s Pearl Street Mall bursts with the excitement of costumed kids during the annual Munchkin Masquerade. This event, a tradition for many years, invites families to dress up their little ones in their cutest, spookiest, or funniest costumes and explore the historic downtown for trick-or-treating. Local shops deck out their storefronts and hand out treats, turning the mall into a festive, safe environment for the community’s youngest Halloween enthusiasts. It’s not just about candy—it’s a celebration of creativity, community spirit, and the joy of childhood. From witches and wizards to tiny pumpkins and superheroes, the Munchkin Masquerade captures the playful essence of Halloween in Boulder. This year, the magic happens on Thursday, October 31, from 3 to 6 PM, promising another unforgettable afternoon of fun.
