At the Historic St. Charles Pumpkin Glow you and your family can bask in the glow of carved pumpkins throughout the historic district while the merchants along Main Street stay open late to offer scary good deals, and the street will be illuminated with hundreds of eerily glowing pumpkins.

Bring your little ghouls and goblins in their favorite costumes to the Main Street historic district in St. Charles for trick or treating from Main Street merchants.
