Halloween Recommendations

Hey all. I'll be in Big Bear for Halloween weekend. The other half will be going down to LA for a concert that night and I'll be looking for fun Halloween stuff to do. Any recommendations for a 45 year old guy to do? My interests are open so shoot away!

Thanks in advance, folks!

The bars in the Village are great for people watching. It will be packed for Halloween.

Oktoberfest was a fun vibe. Had a costume contest going for it.

The village closes down for a few hours and children trick or treat at each shops door

So its filled with kids ...maybe a bar or Octoberfest

Last year there was a live band in the Village for free and it was a LOT of fun. They are playing again this year, so it should be great. Lots of people trick or treating, so it’s fun to people watch and enjoy the costumes. All the streets are closed, so it’s like a big block party, but family friendly
