Longmont makes an easy fall getaway: you can build a trip around a meal, a community celebration, or a family Halloween outing while leaving time to explore town. These three October 2026 events fall on different dates, so check the organizer’s latest details before you travel.
October 2–11: Longmont Restaurant Week
Visit Longmont lists Restaurant Week for October 2–11. Pick the participating restaurants and reservation times that suit your visit, then leave room for a walk downtown. Menus and participation can change, so confirm directly with each restaurant.
October 24: Day of the Dead Family Celebration
The City of Longmont lists its Day of the Dead celebration for October 24. This is a chance to experience local art, culture, and community traditions. Review the city event calendar for the program and location before setting out.
October 31: Halloween Parade
The city’s Halloween parade is scheduled for October 31. If you’re traveling with children, check the Downtown Longmont event page for the current route, timing, and trick-or-treat details. Costumes and comfortable walking shoes are a sensible start.
Make it a weekend
Choose one main event, then explore Longmont at your own pace. Our Main Street guide offers more ideas. If your plans span several days, the extended-stay page explains the hotel option; confirm live prices for your full dates rather than assuming a particular discount.
Longmont Lodge & RV Park has separate choices for visitors arriving by car or RV. Browse our hotel rooms or RV sites and follow the relevant reservation link. Availability, rates, and event details may change.
