Saturday, October 18, 2025
The dead will come to life around 7 pm
Springfield’s first—and only—Halloween Parade is back, and it’s bigger and more bone-chilling than ever!
Now in its 16th year, Thriller on C-Street is a 6-block parade with multiple performances spanning the entire Commercial Street Historic District! Festivities will begin around 7pm, with our goal to perform on Commercial Street between Benton at Jefferson at or shortly after 7pm. We’ll move west performing 4 more times. The entire production is expected to span approximately 90 minutes.
What’s Happening?
- 5 MONSTEROUS Performances of Michael Jackson’s Thriller throughout the Historic C-Street District.
- A mobile, zombie crawl-inspired extravaganza infused with electrifying Thriller performances.
- All performances will be staged facing the NORTH side of Commercial Street for optimal viewing.
Plan Ahead:
- We highly recommend parking off Commercial Street to enjoy unobstructed views. Please note, while we do our best, we cannot guarantee that passersby won’t decide to sit in your vehicle.
- Multiple public parking lots and street parking options are available just off Commercial Street.
- Free Shuttle from Cox North’s east lot.
Cost: FREE for observers.
Join us for an unforgettable night of spook-tacular entertainment as Springfield pays homage to one of music’s most iconic performances. See you there!
