Derry (Northern Ireland)

This holiday, besides the basic criteria of a Halloween festival such as dressing up in scary costumes, participating in bonfires... also has very unique things. Especially in Derry, those who dress normally during the festival will not be served at bars and pubs. In addition, participants can also join street festivals, explore haunted houses or watch fireworks displays.

Chalindrey (France)

This is a witch festival. Participants will dance all night long to Celtic music. Girls will compete in a contest called Miss Witch.

Limoges (France)

Located in the west of France, Limoges is famous for its ceramics, famous cognac cellars and finally, a unique Halloween festival. Every year, up to 50,000 people dress up in all kinds of ideas, with the most horrifying faces, the most terrifying costumes, to join the party all night long. Halloween has added to the reputation of Limoges.

Ostend (Belgium)

The biggest difference, which helps the festival in Ostend attract many tourists, is that Halloween here takes place in early October instead of late October like most other places. As early as October, people have seen spiders and pirates appearing all over the streets. Besides, a bustling street festival also takes place with witch dances everywhere.

This festival attracts about 2 million people every year. Its grandeur is also because New Yorkers in particular and Americans in general are very excited about Halloween. People dress up as demons, witches or scary puppets on the streets.

Oaxaca (Mexico)

Every October 31st, Oaxaca is decorated, with candles lit everywhere. This is the time between Halloween and Mexico's Day of the Dead (November 2nd), so Halloween becomes even more important. People here believe that the souls of the dead will reunite with their families at this time. Unlike many countries, Mexico considers Halloween a time to remember the dead rather than to party and have fun. There are also many competitions and parties, but they are more subdued and quiet.

Los Angeles (USA)

The City of Angels becomes more splendid and sparkling on Halloween night. People light up the lights, cheer, and the stars appear to “spice” the festival. In West Hollywood, Carnival also takes place, with participants dressing up as ghosts to scare each other. And in Los Angeles, there is something special: concerts take place everywhere.

Bangkok (Thailand)

Halloween in Bangkok is a celebration of color. There are competitions on the streets and sexy Halloween-themed shows in the bars.
