The annual Halloween Block Party happens Saturday, Oct. 26, starting at 7 p.m. It is free and open to anyone 18 and older. The party — said to be the largest annual Halloween Block Party in Texas — is put on by Caven Enterprises every year, filling up the block with too many people to count.

Cedar Springs Road, from Throckmorton Street to Reagan Street, will be blocked off to design a costume catwalk for anyone looking to show off. There will be commentary on the outfits over the PA system on the street.
All the clubs on the strip participate in the fun. There are VIP packages available for purchase from S4 to watch the action overhead from the balcony. The club will also be open until 4 a.m. for those who want to twirl all night.
