EVENT IS HAPPENING RAIN OR SHINE!
Welcome to the Halloween Capital of North Texas
Presented by
It's no secret that Celina loves a good festival, and those who have attended Beware! of the Square know that it's one of the City's best. Drawing thousands of zombies, jedis, and princesses to the historic downtown Square each year, this event offers the perfect mix of spooky and sweet.
We are so excited to announce that the City of Celina was designated the official Halloween Capital of North Texas by Collin County Judge Chris Hill in 2021. Learn more about this unique distinction by reading the official proclamation.
