Lambertville Events Calendar: October, 2026 đ Halloween!
This list is continually updated until the end of the month, so check back often.
Lambertville comes alive in October and there are many fun things to do. Choose from a pet costume parade, live music, networking, movies, open mics, a film festival, or grab dinner and go Fright-Seeing to take in all of the amazingly creepy, home-made horror scenes that you will find everywhere around town.
Lambertville Halloween Decorations: The glowing statues now known as the Memory Makerâs Trail of Magic (formerly âThe Lambertville Halloween Houseâ) will start to appear in storefronts and businesses around town beginning on October 1st. They will be on display all month through to Halloween, and this year they will feature an audio tour.
Go out, have fun, and tell âem LambPage sent you!
