South Edmonton Common  ·  Halloween Shopping & Fun

Halloween lands on a Saturday this year, which means a whole weekend of costumes, candy and parties. Whether you’re putting together a last-minute costume, decking out the front step for trick-or-treaters, or planning a night out with friends, here’s everything you need for Halloween at SEC.

From classic witches and superheroes to the latest fandom favourites, you’ll find costumes and accessories for the whole family. Halloween Alley is open for the season with racks of costumes, wigs, makeup and props, and the newly opened Hot Topic is the spot for character merch and pop culture pieces.

Don’t miss: shop early for the best selection of sizes, especially for kids’ costumes. The final week before Halloween is always the busiest.

Give the trick-or-treaters something to talk about. Pick up pumpkins, lights, fake cobwebs and spooky signs, or grab craft supplies and make your own decorations with the kids.
