Event Info
Get a jumpstart to trick-or-treating by exploring the historic Ohio Theatre. Kids of all ages can walk through a Halloween-themed version of the Ohio Theatre and collect goodies in this safe, weather-proof alternative to trick-or-treating.
CAPA associate organist David Fleisher will perform music on the Mighty Morton organ sporadically throughout the event. “Creatures” courtesy of Ohio School of Falconry and characters will be on hand from Castle on a Cloud Entertainment, as well as a Day of the Dead display.
In addition to trick-or-treating, guests can also grab a craft, take photos at selfie stations and more.
Trick-or-treat stations and entertainment will be provided by CAPA and our friends: CCT (Columbus Children’s Theatre), Columbus Symphony, Opera Columbus, and Short North Stage.
In addition, Columbus Commons will have themed activities from 4-7 pm, including a dance party on their iconic stage, spooky readings from the Columbus Metropolitan Library, photo-worthy creatures by Otherworld, a sway-pole performance by the Amazing Giants, Halloween photo opps by Burgundy Ginger Events, Ohio Apple Cider available for purchase (enjoy with or without "Boo'ze), and pumpkins for purchase. Classic Halloween-themed cartoons will be playing on the outdoor video screens.
NOTE: This event includes stairs. No pets, other than service animals, please!
Don your favorite costume and see a spookier side of the theatre! Arrive anytime between 4-7 pm to participate in the event.
Preferred parking for this event is in the Columbus Commons garage at 55 E. Rich St., a short, three-minute walk to the theatre. Guests can walk through Columbus Commons and enter the Ohio Theatre under the main marquee on State Street to begin their experience.
