Tips & Advice

Below are some tips and suggestions to help you make the most of your Richmond Halloween experience.

TIP #1: The Richmond-Brighouse SkyTrain Station is a convenient 10-minute walk away from the park. Take public transit if possible, but be prepared for crowds when you leave.

TIP #2: If you’re driving to the event, arrive early to secure one of the best parking spots. There’s limited parking available at the park, but additional spaces are available in the south parkade at Richmond Centre.

TIP #3: It’s better to leave pets safely at home, as fireworks can be terrifying for animals.

TIP #4: Costumes are encouraged for the event. The 2025 theme, “Creepy Carnival,” makes it a great night to dress up and get spooky!
