3:30 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 30

Join Northwestern and the Central Street Consortium (CSC) in celebrating Halloween with the workers and heavy equipment that are bringing the new Ryan Field to life. 

Back for a second year, Truck or Treat will take place Thursday, Oct. 30, from 3:30 to 6 p.m. in the west stadium lot at Ashland Avenue and Central Street. Costumes are encouraged at this family-friendly event that previews the new Ryan Field's future as a  welcoming space for the local community.  

Construction vehicles used to build  the New Ryan Field will be on display, alongside the Evanston Fire Department’s purple firetruck. Northwestern, CSC, local businesses and University partners will give away candy and gifts, join the community in games, face painting, cotton candy, costume contests and more.   

While registration is not mandatory, we encourage you to RSVP online  so we can share more information with you closer to the time of the event.  

Local businesses interested in participating in the fun may  submit a request online  for more information.
