CEDAR RAPIDS, IOWA (August 27, 2025) — We’ve got costumes for everyone — from the smallest trick-or-treater to the most seasoned costume connoisseur. Whether you’re looking to embody a pop culture icon or prefer something more traditional, we’ve got you covered with our unique mix of new and donated goods. And let’s be honest, where else can you find one-of-a-kind costumes that no one else at the party will be wearing?
BE EXTRAORDINARY
If you’re into creating your own looks, Goodwill has the best selection of components — we even curate “Create Your Own” racks to spark your creativity. Check our website for DIY videos, costume component lists and inspiration.
Our new goods selection means you’ll find wigs, make-up and a massive selection of accessories — all at a fraction of retail prices. Go ahead and check out the coconut bras, fairy wings and colorful hair sprays!
Halloween comes alive at Goodwill, and this year, you have the chance to stand out like never before.
NO TRICKS, JUST TREATS
Seasoned Halloween Headquarters shoppers know the early ghouls are greeted by the full measure of team members’ creativity. And it doesn’t take long for carefully curated displays to be picked apart and transported to new homes. Shop early, shop often (thousands of new items — Halloween and more — are brought to the sales floor each day) and make this season one to remember!
Disappointed because you can only visit one or two Goodwill Stores a day? Keep your eyes on our social media! We feature photos and videos from the stores throughout the season. We’ll not only give you a glimpse of their great displays and show off a few costumes, but we’ll introduce you to the team members who make it all possible.
SPREAD THE SPIRIT
When you shop at Halloween Headquarters, you’re doing more than just preparing for the best holiday of the year. You’re helping Goodwill continue its mission. In fact, 88 cents of every dollar is reinvested. That means you’re supporting vital programs like military-veteran reintegration, independent living with disadvantages, and providing free skills training for anyone looking to advance their career.
So, zombie-walk or cha-cha-cha to Halloween Headquarters, where every costume, accessory and piece of home decor you purchase helps make our community stronger. Who knew dressing up could do so much good?
