Capital Mall Trick-or-Treating on Halloween
I grew up going trick-or-treating at the mall. It seemed like it rained every Halloween. I remember loving it! Tons of candy – we would make the rounds more than once – and we stayed warm and dry. We could sit and get a warm hot chocolate while sorting our candy. My mom loved that she didn’t have to drive around or try and keep track of us in the dark. When we got older, it was a safe place we could be dropped off without my mom having to worry. The Capital Mall is pleased to continue to give families a safe, dry and warm atmosphere on Halloween night. It’s tons of fun too!
Sponsored by Chick-fil-A, Capital Mall trick-or-treating will happen from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. on October 31, 2026. Participating stores will hand out candy to those under 12, but the whole family is encouraged to get dressed up, even the dog!
After filling your buckets and bags, head to the Macy’s Court for some good, old-fashioned Halloween fun for the whole family. They will have a photo booth you won’t want to miss: Get your pictures taken in your costume, save one photo for yourself and drop the other into the costume contest box! The mall will select five costumes and post them on social media for the public to vote. The winner will receive a Capital Mall gift card!
Stay and enjoy the live DJ! Get a glitter tattoo and have a balloon animal made. Still chilly? You can enjoy my Halloween tradition and grab a hot chocolate or coffee at Northwest Grind.
Make memories with lots of treats and no tricks at the Capital Mall!
Shop Halloween Costumes in Olympia (and Décor too!)
The Capital Mall is a one-stop shop when it comes to Halloween! From costumes and décor to serving ware for your spooky soirée, you can find it all and more. The best part? Try on your costume before you buy so you know it fits! No mailing or returns needed!
World Market has outdoor décor and lighting – both string lights and old-fashioned candelabras. Wanting to go with the neon sign trend? They have them! Find Day of the Dead decorations here too. Don’t forget your Halloween party supplies! They have serving ware and food from around the globe. Find butterscotch beer for the Harry Potter fans (Tip: get some cold foam in a can and add it to the bottled brew to have butter beer!), black-and-white pasta and more.
Head to TJ Maxx for more household decorations, including cute pillows, cozy throws for those horror flick marathons, and more. Tj Maxx also has kids’ costumes and is a great place to look for inexpensive accessories for costumes.
Inside the Capital Mall is even more costume ideas. JCPenney has Disney costumes in their Disney section (they are on sale too!) and accessories like Minnie Mouse ears. It’s is also a great place to look for jewelry items to complete your costume – maybe Elle Woods is your inspiration? You’ll find plenty of pink and bling here!
For the older kids, check out Box Lunch and Hot Topic for Halloween-themed apparel from your favorite fandoms, including Sanrio, Disney, horror films and more. Find “Coraline,” “Five Nights at Freddie’s” and “Scream” items to name a few. Spencer’s even has “Scream”-themed shower curtain, towels and bath rugs! Or, if your kid is more into the “put on a themed sweatshirt and call it a costume,” these stores have those too. They also have cozy, licensed hooded blankets that make great additions to costumes to keep you warm while still on theme. Koneko Café has some cute costumes as well as accessories.
Teens and adults can also find trendy costumes at Windsor, including devil-related items, cowboy cheerleaders and princess gowns galore. Windsor would be an excellent choice for those looking for a Dolly Parton outfit – rhinestones are on full display here!
Once you have that costume picked out, check our Claire’s for jewelry and hair accessories and then to Sephora for makeup to finish to find it off!
Whatever you dream up, Capital Mall has what you need for the perfect costume. Then come back for the family-friendly trick-or-treating event to make your Halloween scary good.
