Celebrating Halloween in Sarasota

Though Sarasota may not have much of the chilly breezes and falling leaves that other regions associate with fall, this beautiful, sunny city still has all the fun Halloween and fall activities to get you and your family “in the spirit” of fall. From pumpkin festivals and carnival rides to corn mazes and “haunted” storytelling, there’s something perfect for every member of the family. Here, the friendly Sarasota movers of First Class Moving have prepared a list of some fun and exciting events coming up in and around Sarasota this season.

Grab the kids and head down to the Florida Maritime Museum on October 22 to enjoy a concert by local storyteller Bill Schustik as he uses “the magic of song and story” to reveal some of the stories and mysteries of life at sea. Tickets are $5 at the door.
