LINCOLN, Placer County — October 25, 2026. Families in Lincoln can visit Downtown Trick or Treat on Saturday, October 31, from 1 to 4 p.m., according to the Downtown Lincoln Association’s current events calendar. The event begins at Beermann Plaza, 640 5th Street, and continues to participating downtown businesses.

What is planned?

The organizing association describes free candy, games, music and costume awards. Families can look for decorated booths and merchants distributing treats along the downtown route. The organizer advertises prizes for different costumes and other seasonal family activities, but supplies, participating storefronts and contest arrangements are subject to change.

Which time should visitors follow?

The current Downtown Lincoln Association site consistently shows 1–4 p.m. on October 31. Older copies of the organizer’s calendar circulate with differing hours. For accurate plans, use the current official event entry and confirm any later revisions rather than relying on archived screenshots or unrelated event calendars.

How can local businesses participate?

The association says there is no participation fee for local businesses wishing to hand out candy. Participating merchants are expected to provide their own candy and coordinate any booth arrangement with the Downtown Lincoln Association. Business participation instructions, the detailed event route and the current list of activities are available through the organizer’s events portal.

Parents should supervise young children, watch for cars when crossing streets and check packaging for dietary or allergy concerns. An event listing does not establish an official street closure; follow on-site traffic directions if present.

For information about city-operated events and recreation programs, visit the City of Lincoln’s official special-events directory. For local reporting, visit Lincoln News.
