Sustainability
Tips for how to have a sustainable Halloween.
Halloween on Majors Bay Road began as an initiative of the local business chamber with support from the City of Canada Bay. Over the years it has continued to grow into a popular community event that attracts thousands of people each year.
With the support of the NSW Government’s Open Streets Program, this year’s Halloween Festival will be bigger and better than ever. Check out some photos from last year's event:

Sensory Space at Halloween
At this year's Halloween Festival, we'll be piloting a Sensory Space designed for anyone needing a little time away from an overwhelming environment.
The addition of a Sensory Space, or quiet area, makes for a more welcoming, inclusive, and accessible event for the community.
Delivered in partnership with Autism Spectrum Australia (Aspect), the marquee will provide bean bags, headphones and other sensory items. The space is beneficial for people with disabilities and medical conditions; offering a quieter, safe and supportive area for people to retreat to for a short time, to feel calm.
Please note, the Sensory Space is not a social space and children should always be accompanied by a parent/responsible adult when using the space.
