Welcome to the Avondale District’s FREE Halloween block party, ‘Peaches and Scream,’ on Friday, October 30 and Saturday, October 31st. With four blocks closed off for partying, DJs spinning tunes, football on the big screens, food and drink deals, and of course, COSTUME CONTESTS, you don’t want to miss it! (Did we mention the doggie costume contest? Yep. For reals.)
The fun starts at 5:00 PM on Friday, October 30th and 11:00 AM on Saturday, October 31st. The Avondale District has been hosting regular ‘Eat in the Streets’ events, which will be transforming to ‘Treat in the Streets’ during the sixteenth annual Peaches and Scream Halloween Party. This is a kid-friendly event until dark. The fun for adults (and dogs who like to party) carries on until 11:00.

Kid’s activities include hitting up as many merchants as possible for trick-or-treating, pumpkin decorating with Saw’s Soul Kitchen, FREE mini-scoops of Cookie Dough Magic, and complimentary balloon animals from Post Office Pies. (Dogs probably like cookie dough, too. Just sayin’.)
Redmont Distilling Co. will be on hand with two specialty frozen cocktails, The #RedmontVodka watermelon freeze & the #VulcanGin pear freeze. Both will be available at Saw’s Kitchen. You can also grab Redmont’s Screeches and Peaches at Post Office Pies.
Enter the 21-and-over COSTUME CONTEST sponsored by Redmont Vodka and win fantastic prizes…ahem, we’re guessing vodka…shhhh. Sign up on October 31st at the Redmont booth. Winners will be announced during half-time of the UA vs. Mississippi State game, showing on the big screen on 41st and 2nd.
The HOWLLOWEEN costume contest for dogs is also sponsored by Redmont Distilling Co. The canine winner will be announced at 4:00 PM by Melt. (Dog prizes weren’t mentioned, but tell your dog to go for it with something besides a hotdog outfit. Those are so Last Year.)
