Mackinac Island Halloween Weekend
October 24-26
Halloween comes earlier on Mackinac Island and you won't want to miss it! This weekend typically marks the last big weekend before most island businesses close for the season. Celebrate the fun with the Great Turtle Trail Run, trick-or-treating for kids through downtown shops, and Halloween costume parties and live music for adults throughout island establishments in the evening.
Great Turtle Trail Half Marathon & 5.7 mile Run and Walk
