Trick or Treat Times in New Jersey 2023

We originally published our listing of Trick or Treat Times in New Jersey in 2012, and now we update this annually and frequently throughout October.

With 565 municipalities across New Jersey, it can be difficult to know when and where you and your family can go for trick or treating. With Halloween on a Tuesday this year, some towns will move their trick-or-treating to the weekend before Halloween. Some will keep trick or treating on Halloween.

Do not assume your New Jersey town will handle trick or treating the same as they always do. Get the information you need to know from Jersey Family Fun.

If you do not know if your NJ town is regulating when kids can trick or before you go out in your community to trick or treat you need to check trick or treat times in your neighborhood to see when your trick or treating hours take place.

Every town is different. Some New Jersey towns have Halloween curfews. Some have trick or treating on the weekend. Some don’t have any rules. When it comes to finding local trick-or-treating let us help you figure it out with a town by town look at New Jersey Trick or Treat times. Why Google ‘trick or treating near me’ when we have it all here?
