BOO! The First Annual Toronto Halloween Show Is Coming

The spookiest time of the year is upon us, and with it comes an all-new celebration that devotees of the witching season won’t want to miss. The First Annual Toronto Halloween Show is shrieking into The Warehouse at Downsview Park event venue soon. Running from Friday, October 11. through Sunday, October 13, the inaugural event gives fans the opportunity to check out everything from spooky decorations and animatronics to fun treats and curiosities from a diverse selection of unique vendors, including mediums and spiritual advisors. 

“Halloween is a time of year unlike any other, and we saw an opportunity to create a dedicated, GTA-centric event that highlights everything we love about the season, from the spine-tingling to the flirty and fun,” says founder and event organizer Sandy Gabriele. “There’s something for everyone, from home décor and costume jewelry to animatronics and artistic vignettes and one-of-a-kind pieces. We’re thrilled to launch the Toronto Halloween Show this fall, and we can’t wait to share our unique exhibitors and their offerings with attendees. We hope to see you there!”
