This year introduces exciting new highlights, including MetroCon, BC’s newest FanCon, and Sinner’s Cabaret, a bold 19+ variety show blending drag, burlesque, and live music. Families can enjoy the first-ever Day of the Dead Celebration in Burnaby, filled with performances, crafts, and delicious food.
Visitors can also take advantage of the Ghostly Getaway offer: Stay at a participating Burnaby hotel and attend at least one ticketed event to receive a $100 shopping gift card to The Amazing Brentwood or Metropolis at Metrotown.
Whether it’s family-friendly fun, cultural celebrations, or thrilling late-night entertainment, the Burnaby Halloween Festival has something for everyone. Many events sell out quickly, so plan ahead to make the most of your spooky season!
