Halloween in Lowell means options for families — and one of the best is completely free. The Lowell First Church Kidz Klub and Merrimack Valley Christian Day School invite the community to a FREE Trunk-or-Treat on Saturday, October 24, from 4:00 to 5:30 PM at the Lowell First Church of the Nazarene, 80 Trotting Park Road.
Kids of all ages can trick-or-treat from car to car, enjoy light snacks, and soak up the Halloween fun in a safe, well-lit, community setting. Just bring the family and come ready for a fun-filled afternoon.
Why Family Events Tell You About a Neighborhood
When buyers with kids tour an area, they look at schools and parks — but the community calendar matters just as much. Free, volunteer-run events like trunk-or-treats signal a neighborhood where people know each other and show up. That's the kind of intangible that turns a house into a hometown.
Lowell's family calendar runs deep: trunk-or-treats across the city, the MonsterBash Fall Fest downtown, holiday strolls, and summer concert series. If you're weighing Lowell against surrounding towns, factor in not just the price per square foot but the life that comes with the address.
