San Antonio families get a full Sunday of trunk-or-treats on October 25 — a dozen events in the AllEvents listings, most of them free, running from a morning car show in Helotes through evening costume contests across the city.
Halloween arrives early across San Antonio on Sunday, with a dozen trunk-or-treat events listed for October 25 in the AllEvents San Antonio listings read in full this run. The day starts at 9 a.m. in Helotes, where VFW Post 8759 and the Impalas Car Club host a free Trunk or Treat Car Show at 8759 FM-1560 North until 5 p.m. — the trunk-or-treat competition is free to enter, and the car show entry is listed at $20.
The midday stops are church and community events. St. John Lutheran Church in Boerne holds its Halloween Fall Festival and Trunk or Treat from noon to 1:45 p.m. at 315 Rosewood Avenue, with food served at noon, and the Boys & Girls Clubs of San Antonio hold their 4th Annual Unity Trunk or Treat — a free event open to car clubs and community organizations — from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. at 123 Ralph Avenue. Prince of Peace Catholic Church follows from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. in its back parking lot at 7893 Grissom Road; the listing asks for no scary or occult costumes and welcomes candy donations at the parish office.
The evening run is the busiest. The University of the Incarnate Word holds its annual Trunk-or-Treat from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. in front of the Natatorium at 4301 Broadway — a free event open to alumni and their families, with student groups decorating vehicles and passing out candy, according to the university's official events page.
