Pumpkin Art in Oak Bay Village

Oak Bay Village is now the home of Pumpkin Art! Hundreds and hundreds of carved pumpkins will be displayed behind the Oak Bay Municipal Hall featuring the likes of local personalities, cartoon characters, the Royal Family, the Beatles and more. Admission is by donation and the proceeds benefit the Oak Bay Kiwanis Eliminate Project, which aims to eliminate maternal and neonatal tetanus. Pumpkin Art is open from 5pm to 9 pm beginning the Friday the week prior to Halloween. The Pumpkin Art display is open until 10 pm on October 31.

Merchant Carving Contest

Oak Bay merchants carve their own pumpkins and display them in shop windows throughout Oak Bay Village. 

 Trick or Treat on the Avenue

Every Halloween Oak Bay Village merchants host a giant community trick or treat! Participating merchants offer trick or treat in the stores from Foul Bay Road to Monterey Avenue between 2 and 5 pm. A complete list of participating merchants, identified by the pumpkin poster in their window, will be posted a week before Halloween.

Following the trick or treat, the Municipality of Oak Bay hosts a bonfire in Fireman’s Park with hot dogs, hot chocolate and a Halloween costume contest.
