The exciting theme for this year’s event is ‘Libre de Faire’. (It means: ‘free to be’ or ‘free to make’) which encourages participants to freely be themselves in costume and cosplay.

You can expect non-stop fun from 4:00pm with three designated zones for people of all different ages. With a massive 58 stalls running the entire length of Lithgow Main Street there will be food, fun and fantastic attractions for the whole family. The streets will be packed with stilt walkers, LED dancers and stunt performers along with costumes and craft that will keep you entertained for hours.

This event is fun and safe for all ages so parents can feel comfortable bringing the little ones to the dedicated family friendly zone “Haunted Highway” with facepainting, reptile show, jumping castles and rides for the kids in a safe and comfortable environment. “Freak Street” is the place for the wild and different to gather and enjoy the performance stage. “Wicked Lane” is the zone for the older kids, featuring a main stage that will play host to some great bands both locally and from further afield. The Wicked Lane stage will be the thumping heart of the Lithgow Halloween with bands kicking off from 6:00pm. 

Lithgow Halloween is Australia’s biggest dress up party and has become one of the Central West’s biggest events. Beginning in 2013, Lithgow Halloween was created to connect the community at a fun and safe event that showcases the incredible creativity of our area and welcomes visitors to the Seven Valley’s for a night they won’t forget.
