Beggars’ Night in Des Moines

Beggars’ Night in Des Moines & Surrounding Communities 2023

Happy Halloween! Prepare your beggars’ night jokes and get ready for Beggars’ Night in Des Moines, Iowa. Des Moines is a bit different as we do not do trick-or-treat nights on Halloween night. In true Iowa fashion, we have created our very own night called Beggars’ Night which falls on October 30th. Some communities in central Iowa opt out of celebrating on October 30th and a couple of cities are doing it on Halloween night.

Take a list of beggar’s night dates in and around Des Moines for 2023. We will continue to update this post throughout the season. If you see an error or want to be included on this list please contact us.
