Introduction and local significance
The Fiesta Infantil de Halloween en Mazarrón is a cultural event organised in the Region of Murcia that officially takes place on 31 October 2026. This municipal gathering is specifically designed for children, covering minors aged between 3 and 12 years old. The activities are concentrated at the Pabellón Municipal La Cañadica, a venue equipped with the necessary infrastructure to host the programme for this themed day in the municipality of Mazarrón. Attendance at this event constitutes a leisure alternative within the cultural calendar of the Murcian locality for the month of October.
Historical origins and tradition
The main custom rooted in this festivity consists of attending the municipal venue wearing themed costumes for the occasion. Participants actively follow the official slogan of the call, which encourages attendees under the premise "¡Sorpréndenos con tu disfraz!". This direct participation through the use of terrifying characterisations constitutes the visual core of the celebration in the Murcian locality.

Traditional festival food
Regarding the traditional cuisine of this festivity, the official documentation and data provided about the event do not mention the existence of specific traditional dishes exclusively associated with this children's celebration. As it is a single-afternoon recreational gathering focused on audiences aged 3 to 12, the municipal programme does not include food tastings or traditional recipes linked to this specific date in the municipality.
Visitor guide and where to stay
Access to all activities programmed at the Pabellón Municipal La Cañadica is completely free for minors who fall within the established age range of 3 to 12 years old. To organise your visit and stay during the dates of the fiesta, it is advisable to book accommodation in advance both in the municipality of Mazarrón itself and in nearby towns, which makes it easier to follow the planned events. Likewise, on days with the highest public turnout, it is preferable to use public transport or park vehicles outside the urban concentration areas.
