This Weekend at Grand Lake - Oct 29, 2026

Trunk-or-treats, haunted walks, costume parties, and an extra hour of sleep. Halloween weekend is HERE.

By Geoff Monical

Goooood Morning!

It’s Halloween weekend at Grand Lake, and the calendar is absolutely STUFFED with trunk-or-treats, haunted walks, costume contests and Halloween parties from Monkey Island to Langley. If you’ve got kids (or you just really like candy), you could hit a different trunk-or-treat every few hours from Thursday night through Saturday.

One more thing: Daylight Saving Time ends Sunday at 2:00 a.m., so set those clocks back an hour before you go to bed Saturday night. (Bonus: an extra hour of sleep after the costume party. You’re welcome.)

Let’s get to it! Here is what you need to know for THIS Weekend at Grand Lake:

⭐ FEATURED SPONSOR: Boat Floater of Oklahoma

Now that boating season is winding down, it’s the perfect time to think about getting your boat out of the water and onto a lift before spring. Boat Floater of Oklahoma has been floating boats on Oklahoma lakes since 1974, and they make their lifts right here in Oklahoma.

They’ve got lifts for V-hulls, wakesurf boats, pontoons and tritoons, plus options for shallow water docks. Their Classic Model moves forward as it rises, so a longer boat can fit in a shorter slip. Their Free Floater fits pontoons and tritoons with an 8.5' beam into a 10' slip. The tanks carry a limited lifetime warranty, and the lifts are built to be nearly maintenance-free. Boat Floater handles sales, installation and service.

Call or visit the website to get a quote and have your lift ready before next season.
