Halloween 2021 at the Market
October has arrived at 5th Street Public Market, and we’ve conjured up a spooktacular, family-friendly experience to get you into the spirit all month long. So put on your masks and makeup, and grab your jack-o’-lanterns and trick or treat bags and allow us to guide you through the Halloween highlights.
** The State of Oregon mandates that all persons, regardless of vaccination status, wear a mask in all public indoor spaces. For outdoor mask requirements, please click here for more info. Please be sure to bring your mask when you visit the businesses at the 5th Street Public Market.
