Other festival events
There is plenty of daytime entertainment to enjoy from 4pm on Friday and 2pm on Saturday. Live performances will take place on a stage at Bridge Street and at County Square. There will also be eerie lighting displays on some of the town’s most iconic buildings.
This year, the popular funfair will be located at the Lagoon Car Park and East End Park. It'll offer plenty of opportunities to keep the children entertained in the build up to the parade.
Paisley Central Library on the High Street will be running Halloween arts and crafts sessions. The Art Department will have free spooky lantern making workshops. There will also be marshmallow pits and a devilish selection of street food options.
It wouldn’t be Halloween without surprise installations dotted all around town to help create that spooky atmosphere. Look out for the Flaming Gargoyle, the Ghost Ship, Giant Witch and bubbling cauldron to name a few.
In addition to the programme of activity taking place across the town centre local businesses and partners in Paisley are also putting on Halloween-inspired activities for visitors.
