Halloween safety tips from the SFPD
In order to assist San Francisco's community in enjoying this fun-filled holiday as safely as possible, the SFPD has compiled the following tips. Click here.		    

 

San Francisco named best
city in the country to Trick or Treat
San Francisco may have the smallest percentage of children of any city in the country, but there’s no better place for them to be on at least one night of the year. For the third year in a row, we’ve been named the best city for trick-or-treating in the entire nation. read

Halloween belongs to all of us. Following the successful campaigns of previous years to keep everyone safe and maintain the Castro’s tranquility, we’re continuing and expanding the Home for Halloween campaign. Like last year there is no party or special event in the Castro. However, there are lots of events and celebrations around San Francisco, throughout the Bay Area and right in your own “home” neighborhood!

This October 31st, bars and restaurants in the Castro will be open for business. However, as was the case last year the streets will not be closed to traffic. As in every other community in the City, there will be zero tolerance for behavior which doesn’t respect the celebrated diversity of our communities. And again like last year, there will be zero tolerance for individuals and businesses that do not obey alcohol consumption and distribution regulations. The Home For Halloween website will help promote your events so please let us know about what you have planned in your community.

The Castro is not appropriate for a party with 100,000 people. So, the Home For Halloween campaign enters its twelfth year of celebrating Halloween throughout the Bay Area and encouraging people to respect everyone’s home, including the Castro. With your support, we can indeed make Halloween a “home” for celebrations that are fun, festive and respectful. Halloween is for everyone.
