Halloween fun will continue into Sunday as the Chattanooga Market welcomes families to its annual Haunted Market on November 1.

 

The seasonal celebration runs from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at First Horizon Pavilion, with shopping, trick-or-treating and costumes throughout the market.

 

Young visitors can collect candy from participating vendors while adults browse locally made goods and seasonal offerings.

 

Costumes are encouraged for children and grown-ups alike, so a family outing can become part of the celebration.

 

The centerpiece is the costume parade at 1:30 p.m. on the Sunday Funday Stage.

 

That procession gives creative costumes another chance to shine after Halloween night.

 

Organizers also list entertainment from Scenic City Dance and a costume contest as part of the program.

 

For parents looking to fill the first afternoon of November, the timing offers a relaxed follow-up to Saturday's trick-or-treating.

 

The market is a familiar Sunday destination, but the annual Halloween theme adds a festive twist to the usual mix of vendors and community activity.

 

Visitors can plan to stroll through the pavilion, browse artisan booths and take in the lively atmosphere before or after the parade.

 

The event is listed as free admission, though purchases from individual vendors are separate.

 

Sunday's schedule is different from Saturday's Halloween events, so families should note the November 1 date rather than assuming the market takes place on October 31.

 

Arriving ahead of the 1:30 p.m. parade should give families more time to explore and find a comfortable viewing spot.

 

Participants should check the market's official schedule before traveling in case of last-minute changes.

 

The venue is in Chattanooga's Southside area, making it convenient to combine the outing with another downtown stop.

 

With candy, costumes and locally owned businesses all in one place, Haunted Market puts a cheerful finish on the holiday weekend.

 

Best of all, it gives the 423 community one more opportunity to gather before the calendar moves fully into November.
