Here in Central City, we love any reason to throw a good party … after all, we have been known to dance in the streets in period costumes a time or two. In 2023, there will be no shortage of street festivals and events with plenty of flashy costumes, cold drinks, crazy competitions, and historical traditions. If you’re planning a trip to Central City, why not make it one of these weekends?

Halloween is as spooky or family-friendly as you’d like it in Central City.

The festivities get started early here, with the 33rd Annual Cemetery Crawl on August 27th. The dead will come alive in one of Central City’s 11 cemeteries, where local history buffs portray the fascinating characters who call these cemeteries their home.
