MILAN, ILLINOIS (October 7, 2025) — Join us for our favorite event of the year — the Milan Chamber's Annual Trunk-or-Treat.

It's shaping up to be HUGE, and we want YOU to be a part of it! It’s fun, it's festive, and it's free to all who want to join.

The event will be held October 23, 5-6:30PM, at the Camden Centre Parking Lot (2701 1st Street East, Milan).

Registered “trunks” set up at 4PM.

If rain, the date will be October 25, with every other detail as is.

Local businesses are transforming their trunks into haunted havens, candy stations, and fun-filled stops for trick-or-treaters.

Dress up in your coolest, spookiest, or silliest costume and bring a BIG candy bag — you’re going to need it.

So gather your friends, family, and all the Halloween spirit you can find — we can’t wait to see your creepy creations and collect some sweet treats!
