🎃 Top Safe Trick-or-Treat Spots in Snohomish County
Downtown Marysville
Downtown Marysville transforms into a family-friendly Halloween zone! Many local businesses along 3rd Street and State Avenue hand out candy, and the sidewalks are lined with families in costume. It’s a great, walkable option that truly shows off the small-town charm Marysville is known for.
Pro tip: Arrive early to find parking and bring a reusable tote for all that candy!

If you love a cozy, small-town feel, you’ll love Halloween in historic Snohomish. Local shops and restaurants along 1st Street hand out candy, and the streets are filled with creative costumes and fall decorations. This is a perfect spot for families who want that classic “Main Street” trick-or-treat experience.

Mill Creek hosts one of the most organized and safe trick-or-treating events in the county. Businesses throughout the Town Center join in with candy, games, and festive decorations. There’s plenty of lighting, easy parking, and it’s stroller-friendly — perfect for little ones.
